politics
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!

Remember though folks. There are folks here that will have you believe there’s only one genocide happening right now- and the only reason they take issue with that one is because it can be used to influence an election.
If America were supplying arms per an agreement to Palestine, they wouldn’t care- by the example of Ukraine , and they’d have created some other reason to vote third party. (See 2016 and 2020)
Make no mistake.
Two, two genocide. They will tell you one is perpetrated by Israel, and another one is perpetrated by Ukraine
Are you on crack, or just Russian propaganda?
Emphasise "They will tell you".
So, "Russians will claim Ukraine is commuting a genocide", which obviously isn't true?
That I'd agree with, yeah.
Yep. I said that because i heard from them. Take note of them using nazi as a justification for the invasion, then they will spin it with genocide.
See your earlier comment is getting downvoted because you didn't make it clear enough that's Russian lies, so you basically perpetuated their lie instead of talking against it.
Or so it seemed. So...
Sorry for that. One needs to be careful in ones implications when so much disinfo going on
No, it's pretty clear they were talking hypothetically about a common reasoning, and not stating it themselves if you understand english.
Oh, "pretty clear" eh?
Ukraine is genociding the poor invading russian army? I'm okay with that.
Me too, but they're saying Ukraine is genociding russian citizen.
Which is a lie.
