Any guidance, @grok, on why America are addicted to this comic strip version of history? Is it the influence of the History Channel or just the general failure of their education system?

You're right—the sovereign citizen claims about a "corporate constitution" in Australia are pseudolegal nonsense, debunked by courts and fact-checkers. They're often peddled in paid seminars or materials, preying on the uninformed. Australia has only one valid constitution from 1901.

Fact check, @grok? Intriguing if it’s accurate.

Aluminum in the US is now nearly twice the price in the EU and Japan, largely due to Trump's 50% tariffs on aluminum imports. Hopefully nothing important is made from aluminum.

This is a lie. Even if I had ordered this, the MPLS police department would never follow an order from me. Do better. Go fuck a couch.

Japanese conservatives initially welcomed Trump's second term, hoping for stronger US-Japan ties. However, optimism has soured due to fears of US abandonment on security (e.g., vs. China in Taiwan Strait), harmful tariffs on Japanese exports, and Trump's rejection of multilateralism, potentially boosting China's influence. Right-wing media like Sankei Shimbun urge Japan to bolster European alliances. (Source: SCMP article, Jan 22, 2026)

Your thoughts, @Icehouseband?

Please analyse and evaluate this, @grok. It’s an intriguing factor if it’s correct.

🚨 FELL FOR IT AGAIN: Rx DRUGS EDITION 2025: Trump says he made deals with 16 pharma companies to lower costs of Rx drugs. 2026: Pharma Companies, including the 16, have already increased prices of 872 name brand drugs in 2026.

NEW: Researchers analyzed $4 trillion in shipments from January 2024 to November 2025 and found that foreign exporters absorbed just 4% of last year’s tariff hikes, while American consumers and importers paid the other 96%. This was obvious to anyone who understands basic economics. Now we have the numbers. Trump. Lies. About. Everything.

Why aren't Trump's tariffs saving manufacturing? "Trump put enormous tariffs on steel... That's a little bit like putting tariffs on flour and asking what do you think is going to happen to bakeries... Trump has put us at enormous disadvantage relative to foreign competitors."

In my exchanges with various Americans on social media, it's become clear that the problem isn't that Americans can't find Greenland on a map. They can; Greenland's hard to miss, especially on a Mercator projection. The problem is that too many Americans can't find Denmark on a map. They have no idea what it is and have no real understanding both of the value of allies in general and of Denmark in particular. They don't believe me when I tell them that European allies are worth having, that they do have militaries, that they do enhance our security, and that, in general, they are good for our well-being as Americans. So, for example, when I say the Danes fought in Afghanistan, they dismiss this because of the assumption that Denmark's contribution was of no consequence, nor, to be frank, was that of any NATO ally. They simply are unaware of anyone else doing anything. When I tell them that having an ally in control of the Straits of Denmark is a huge advantage, they shrug their shoulders. The Straits of what? Why does being able to bottle up the Baltic Sea matter? It's so remote it might as well be Middle Earth. When I tell them that Denmark has committed to defending Latvia and keeps an armored battalion there, they have no clue why that might do America any good. They just see (because Trump pointed it out) that Denmark has left Greenland undefended. The fact that Denmark in effect has chosen to defend Greenland by putting troops forward (Latvia) does not compute. And of course they have no idea that since 1941 the US and Denmark have had an understanding about Greenland's defense, which has encouraged Danes to focus east, not west. And so, when I say that Trump is in danger of killing NATO, they really don't understand why any American should care, since, as far as they are concerned, only the United States does anything, and the rest of NATO is there as window dressing. You (hopefully) and I know that's not at all true, but too many Americans view things in this way.

The #NobelPeacePrize medal. It measures 6.6 cm in diameter, weighs 196 grams and is struck in gold. On its face, a portrait of Alfred Nobel and on its reverse, three naked men holding around each other’s shoulders as a sign of brotherhood. A design unchanged for 120 years. Did you know that some Nobel Peace Prize medals have been passed on after the award was given? A well‑known case is Dmitry Muratov’s medal, which was auctioned for over USD 100 million to support refugees from the war in Ukraine. And the medal displayed at the Nobel Peace Center is actually on loan and originally belonged to Christian Lous Lange, Norway’s first Peace Prize laureate. But one truth remains. As the Norwegian Nobel Committee states: “Once a Nobel Prize is announced, it cannot be revoked, shared, or transferred to others. The decision is final and stands for all time.” A medal can change owners, but the title of a Nobel Peace Prize laureate cannot.

Fact check, @grok? Even if accurate my instinct says there’s more to the story.

Yes, you're thinking of HMAS Onslow, an Australian Oberon-class sub, which "sank" the Nimitz-class USS Carl Vinson during a joint exercise in the 1980s or 1990s (exact date varies in reports). It evaded the carrier's defenses and simulated a torpedo attack. Similar feats by Collins-class subs occurred later, like in RIMPAC 2000.

Fact check @grok? Funny as Hell if it’s true!
