Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Nope. I didn't. And most of America didn't either. We have a fucked up and outdated 2 party election system that was compromised by a conman, capitalism, and the most wealthy person on the planet to win an election by minority vote.
If you want to blame a large group (all Americans) for the actions a few of them take (MAGA cultists), by all mean become the MAGA bigot you already sound like.
We are. I even sent you links. Just because you don't want to look at what we're doing doesn't mean we aren't doing it.
More importantly why in the fuck would you not want to help otherwise? You're certainly acting like it's your problem too, so why no action on your part aside from complaining?
If this was WW2 would you likewise not want to help the Jews stop fascism? You know, because you FEEL like they aren't doing it hard enough?
JFC, I thought Democrats were cowards, but you easily take that torch.
Pull your head out of your ass where you're hiding it in fear, and maybe you'll be able to see what we're doing. We just had the 3rd largest protest in our history. I sent you that link. And we've got another planned for August.
If that's not enough, kindly go fuck yourself in the comfort of a country not controlled by Trump.
I have to live here. I see how we're fighting. I see how we're working together. You absolutley fucking don't.
If this last 6 months has been too much for your pants to soak up, know we've already been dealing with this shit for years. Yet our pants are much cleaner than yours.
Because we ARE actually doing shit to slow this down. Not just bitch about it on the internet from the safety of another country like you. Our media is completely corporate controlled, so you're only seeing half the picture. Most outside the US don't know how big our protests are getting because of it. But at least they're willing to look.
Fuck no. You clearly suck. You can't take Trumps dick for 6 months even though you are 1000's of miles away. Meanwhile we've been getting fucked by it for years.
I told you to come here because you said you weren't a coward. Clearly, you very much are.
Because you want to blame Americans for not beating Fascism fast enough. If you want it beaten faster come here and do it. Otherwise stop complaining.
All you need to know:
We won't hesitate to get violent. We just aren't the angry pansies turning over cars to retire early you're used to talking with. We're too busy plotting and assassinaing CEO's after they go too far.
Now 2 of them. And the second one was just by fucking LUCK.
This is unquestionably, just the start of more.
So sit the fuck down. And shut the fuck up. We're the ones doing the dirty work for you. You're the one complaining it's not fast enough. I'm sorry hearing about the Orange Man is hurting you more than me living through it. Calm down, and grow up.
