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!

For Americans? Maybe not, at least not immediately. For Palestinians? Yes, that's exactly what she said, "no deviation" from Biden's policies which led to an internationally-recognized genocide. I am not willing to step over piles of dead children to vote to protect my own comfort, as I've repeatedly said.
Yeah that went great with Bernie Sanders, when people clearly supported him so the DNC rigged their primaries to guarantee he lost then had a court declare they were legally within their right to do so.
You live in a fantasyland. A benevolent fantasy, which is better than the Nazis, but still a fantasy.
Yeah look, you’re using that as your excuse. You don’t care about these people, you helped underwrite their slaughter and you’re using them as an excuse so not only is this redundant, it’s repulsive.
It might have if you’d turned out better and that’s one election. One. You need to do that for all of them and had you been doing that from the get go the US would be vastly different from the rest.
I live in a decent society because we vote.
You can always guarantee tankies will throw the toys from the cot with their childish shit the moment a mirror is lifted. If you’re not a plant, one day you’ll grow up and realise how you helped kill millions of people then used their deaths as reasons to blame others.
Anyway, go crawl under your rock please. I’m not engaging with you anymore, I have a football match to watch.
damn didn't expect to meet a telepath on Lemmy today. Fascinating, impressive.
Must be nice, what country? I live in a fascist empire.
Not a tankie, your telepathy malfunctioned that time I guess, it's ok
I'm 30 in a few months, and if growing up entails endorsing genocide to preserve my own privilege and comfort, I'm happy to pass on that
But you already said that
