This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

The headline makes it sound like the "in favour" votes were for death penalty, which is not correct. This was a vote for a moratorium - a temporary suspension - of death penalty.

This now makes more sense. The headline did a shitty job
