Welcome to the News community!
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.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
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.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
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.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
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. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Both parties are neolibs.
It's just a duopoly.
All of your critiques apply to both parties.
I'm left so I hate right.
I'm right so I hate left.
So boring.
Introduce ranked choice voting.
We could hate omnidirectionally.
Strangely more often it's "I'm left so I hate the US left" and they don't bother criticizing Republicans at all.
You want someone to help you do something for the good of everyone. Do you ask the giant selfish asshole or a rock for help? Republicans are the rock.
They're not asking or working with Democrats, they're painting them as worse than 'the rock' and telling people to abandon the party. Oddly it's the exact same thing foreign influence operations were doing on reddit in 2015, and Republicans in ~2006... discouraging young voters from voting at all. Huh, wonder who that helps.
Omnidirectional hate, I like that.
I hate everyone equally
This!
Not so much, this. Hate is bad, hate leads to destruction (Dark Side, etc).
We should ALL be asking our politicians about ranked choice voting. It's not even mentioned currently by anyone though.
There is no left.
If you are located in the United States, this is correct.
The left is a bogeyman spectre used to prevent change.
Out of curiosity, why do people write things like that? There's 0% change of this happening. Are you delusional and propose this as actual solution or are you so disillusioned that at this point you don't even care about actual solutions and just want to play fantasy politics?
