Rules:

1. Be civil

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.

Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.

9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.

All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

The Trump administration reportedly plans to mobilize up to 1,700 National Guard troops across 19 states in the coming weeks to support its immigration and anti-crime crackdowns, a dramatic expansion of the controversial operation that’s seen federal agents and Guard troops carrying out activities across Washington, D.C.

The troops, who will largely be activated across Republican-controlled states, will serve in support of the administration’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations, as well as other law enforcement priorities, according to comment from unnamed Pentagon officials and documents obtained by Fox News.

Fucking a, you really don't get analogies. I'm explaining how two people (or groups) can contribute to the same predictable outcome in totally different ways.

Dude. They’re not even remotely the same. Just stop.

No kidding. I still haven't said they are.

So in your world, Democrats are victims,

No, in this case we are the victims. Let me set aside analogies since you can't seem to handle the fact that that they are never 100% applicable to every aspect of anything.

The Democratic consultants who lost to Trump in 2024 are the same consultants who lost to Trump in 2016. What organization rewards that level of failure with another shot? The party itself is almost entirely identical to the party of 2016 because the Democrats learned nothing. Kamala's campaign could have been swapped with Hilary's campaign and nobody would have noticed. Even now the Democrats are shaking up nothing. The postmortem they did of the Harris campaign excluded pretty much everything the campaign actually did. Democrats in general, voters included, want to get past Trump then go right back to being the loser party they have been for decades. It's pathological, and it's just going to bring us to Trump v2. (Being optimistic that we ever see a real election again.)
