that means they are based on both your browsing history and the subject of what you are reading.

So, NRA ads.

Don't yell at the moderators or the owners- they are trying to fund the place with ads, and they can't control what ads show up. They can block them, but trust me, the right wingers have tricky ways of getting around blocks, so it can be frustrating whack-a-mole.
