The very third post on this pull request thread is someone saying "Claude wrote this PR with help from ChatGPT", at which point the maintainer should have immediately rejected the PR and closed the thread. Instead it goes on for another dozen posts.

Dat artikel over hoe een BBB-bewindspersoon een charlatan opdracht geeft een kulrapport te schrijven om daarnee beleid te saboteren ten behoeve van het verdienmodel van een paar miljonairs en ten koste van de samenleving, moet elke kiezer lezen. De VVD is hier even verantwoordelijk voor als BBB.

Werkelijk alles (o.a. misogynie en flutjournalistiek) wordt uit de kast getrokken om het maar niet over de inhoud van de kritiek van Ronit Palache te hoeven hebben. www.mediacourant.nl/2025/11/roni...
Ronit Palache omhelsde Wierd Duk vlak voor tv-wegloopincident
Ronit Palache heeft Wierd Duk achter de schermen nog omhelsd voordat ze op televisie volledig los op hem ging, vertelt hij in Vandaag Inside. "Ik had helemaal geen beef met haar", zegt hij.

Zelensky says Russia’s massive strike amid peace talks shows Moscow isn’t serious about ending the war. While the U.S., Europe, and others are working on a real path to peace, Russia keeps prioritizing aggression. “We must not forget the reality. We must counter Russian strikes 24/7,” he said.

Setting aside for a second the lunacy and authoritarianism surrounding the Trump/Hegseth threat to court martial Mark Kelly, it is also politically moronic. No military court or jury would uphold this, and you only do Kelly a tremendous favor by making him more popular than ever.

Senator Kelly’s remarks in the video are “a 100% accurate representation of what the law says."

“No American citizen should have to deal with this type of preposterous investigation.”

Every American should learn about the land mines and unexploded ordnance left by their governments in Laos & Cambodia. It’s still there even NOW, nearly 3 generations later.

Bourdain’s quote is true. I’ve been to Cambodia. A man with a land-mine melted face will always be burned in my brain.
Once you've been to Cambodia, you'll never stop wanting to beat Henry Kissinger to death with your bare hands. You will never again be able to open a newspaper and read about that treacherous, prevaricating, murderous scumbag sitting down for a nice chat with Charlie Rose or attending some black-tie affair for a new glossy magazine without choking. Witness what Henry did in Cambodia - the fruits of his genius for statesmanship - and you will never understand why he's not sitting in the dock at The Hague next to Milosevic.

It is very different for those that are there!
Regardless of not hearing, smelling tasting or feeling what this is like it is very real.
