Rules:

The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

Muskrat wants more HB1 visas. Conservative Twitter accounts said no. Muskrat retaliates. (slrpnk.net)

There's nothing inside of them. Just a thin outer shell comprised of hate and ignorance that's SUPER fragile.

I once saw a comment from a self-labeled 'Christian conservative' that was something to the tune of: "We need to stop taking the religion out of everything, because otherwise what's to stop people from raping and stealing and killing and blah blah."

It was then that I first had the horrifying revelation that this person (and many others, I'm sure) is at least quite strongly implying that without the threat of hell they wouldn't have any reason to NOT do any of those things.

Anybody who believes in either side is and that's why you're fucked.

There's a reason ''true believer'' is a pejorative, or at least cautionary, description in politics. Belief is not the way to oporate and get results. If you can't accept getting 60% of what you want out of legislation along with the other two branches of goverment, you'll never get 1% of what you want.
