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 rules that you guys have these elaborate backstories whenever someone has a different opinion from you lol
I'm just not interested in my representatives making sure endless american bombs are used to blow up childeren, that's my main issue.
"You guys"?
I'm one person.
So you slam Democrats but not trump that advocated for Netanyahu and that he should go into Gaza with even more force, because they aren't human?
Makes sense.
So you're staunchly advocating against putin whenever you can for these exact reasons, right?
I really don't see how much stronger I could say I disavow trump other than to say that the prospect of trump winning makes me want to make the thing that the guy used on shinzo abe.
I'm upset with the democrats for their absolute failure to deliver on being any better than republicans when it comes to killing people abroad. (it also looks super bad to have been the ones sending nonstop weapons to kill kids while natural disasters are rocking the country) I don't care about hypotheticals in the future, I care about what's been happening in the here and now.
You can't win with people who are brainwashed from birth to think they aren't. They just want to carp on endlessly about how bad the other guy is so they don't have to cop to how far right the "left" is and how it's not the glowing endorsement that war criminals are endorsing them.
