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!

They need to give us something to fight for first. The system is not currently supporting and nourishing it's children. Why on earth would we trust people to help that can't even fully recognise a genocide? How do we trust them to give us healthcare? It's an insult to the intelligence of the American people.
Ahhh yes. Why fight against evil if all my boxes aren’t ticked. Enjoy 100 years of fascism.
Fascism has never been overthrown by limp oppoisition parties suddenly finding a spine. It's either war, revolution or (in a few odd cases) a coup, such as the one carried out by Spain's otherwise useless and corrupt king when Franco bit the dust.
I’m all for revolution.
Just because I go out of my way to vote, doesn't mean I expect others to when the results are against them either way. Bullying people won't get you any further to what is needed. Aim it at the politicians, they more than deserve it. If you give people something to show up for, anti corruption and anti genocide, they'll show up, just like they did for Mandami.
agreed, the new wedge issues havent dropped yet.
Who knows what they will tell us to think about for this round, so excited.
