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!

You lack knowledge in what it means for americans to self impose hardship. Your ignorance is perfectly excusable.
Yeah whatever sunshine. Your opinion; what you demonstrate is your willingness to use children for excuses.
You brought kids in, not me. All I said Americans aren’t willing to endure a bit of hardship. That includes going to protests and voting as well. The rest is your cowardly creation.
No, I just understand why you're upset, and you remain blind. You are upset because Americans aren't suffering enough. You are blind.
I’m not upset. It’s not my shit show. I have healthcare, housing and hope primarily because we vote for it.
How? Americans can’t endure hardship. They can’t even endure enough to vote; they bitch about that because of work and timing. Piss and moan.
No, you’ve created this ‘kid suffering’ thing and continue to roll with it by claiming I don’t understand.
I couldn’t give a fuck if you think I’m blind; the evidence speaks for itself.
Now, please, your rock. It’s waiting for you.
Okay man. Keep on thinking you understand how the world works. How old are you?
Moving goalposts again champ? The US.
None of your business.
The rock please. This is the last time I respond to you.
You're projecting, unfortunately.
