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!

It should be illegal to send children away to abuse camps.
Laws preventing this type of abuse are needed because conservative parents are not capable of empathy, which makes them terrible parents. They aren't able to recognize that throwing a child into a torture gulag is bad, but they do recognize what is legal or illegal. We may not be able to force a conservative to be a good parent, but we can provide them with laws that can guide them away from obvious abuses like these.
Conservatives have a difficult time understanding what is good or bad, so they often look to laws for guidance. If something is not expressly illegal, a conservative will think such behavior is acceptable. What is obvious to a normal person is simply not obvious to a conservative. Laws help guide conservatives away from child abuse. We need to demand such laws or this abuse will continue.
If you noticed in the article, most of these schools are based on Utah. It combines two things that Mormons are very good at: abusing teenagers and making
money in dubious/illegal ways.
The state laws are lax, the child protective services and schools are underfunded, and culturally parents attempt to exert extreme control over their teenagers and barely adults.
We should just make all our laws aimed at conservatives or maybe just kill all of them because they are the same. Remind you of anything?
It reminds me of a strawman designed to defend conservatives.
Going off the post, they are all the same robots. Why straw man
