Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

I wonder if cheeto mcpedo knows that many people might just be literally dancing in the streets when he passes?

I heard you really need to sign up now to get in the line to piss on his grave.

Ok, Grandpa. Time for your nap and meds.

Again the Trump derangement syndrome or something like that

Some say they want to make this claim that being against the government is a disease, so they can bring back mental institutions and lock people protesting against the govement as “mental health” and try to escape the 1st amendment

This is really scary.

An artist is stabbed to death and Trump is being a sorry excuse of a human being about it. It must be any one of the seven days of the week.

We all know he didn’t write any of that. The sentence structure is far too complicated.

Keeping is classy.

Trump is human garbage, but without the human part

Jesus, I completely missed that he had been murdered. Just heartbreaking, he seemed like a genuinely good person as well as making some of the movies that defined my childhood.

By his own kid even

Not sure why this is a news story to be honest. Haven't we all been very aware, for at least a decade, that Trump is a crass, stupid, mean-spirited bastard?

Mean internet comments? Who cares? I mean, I know it gets clicks and that's why it's written about but god fucking damn it I wish we'd all get a grip.

I really hate these defeatist comments.

[–] nostrauxendar@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You're free to hate them. I don't feel defeated. I'm not expressing defeat, in my opinion. I simply don't think this is important or newsworthy.

It would not be if he wasn't the president of the USA.
