Political Discussion and Commentary
A place to discuss politics and offer political commentary. Self posts are preferred, but links to current events and news are allowed. Opinion pieces are welcome on a case by case basis, and discussion of and disagreement about issues is encouraged!
The intent is for this community to be an area for open & respectful discussion on current political issues, news & events, and that means we all have a responsibility to be open, honest, and sincere. We place as much emphasis on good content as good behavior, but the latter is more important if we want to ensure this community remains healthy and vibrant.
Content Rules:
- Self posts preferred.
- Opinion pieces and editorials are allowed on a case by case basis.
- No spam or self promotion.
- Do not post grievances about other communities or their moderators.
Commentary Rules
- Don’t be a jerk or do anything to prevent honest discussion.
- Stay on topic.
- Don’t criticize the person, criticize the argument.
- Provide credible sources whenever possible.
- Report bad behavior, please don’t retaliate. Reciprocal bad behavior will reflect poorly on both parties.
- Seek rule enforcement clarification via private message, not in comment threads.
- Abide by Lemmy's terms of service (attacks on other users, privacy, discrimination, etc).
Please try to up/downvote based on contribution to discussion, not on whether you agree or disagree with the commenter.

They bought the ability to play god, and that's all that matters to them. It's not about being "good" or "evil", that's for us poors to worry about. It's about being able to wield power over us and have nobody stop them, our lives at the mercy of their whim. Small tyrants ruling over a broken kingdom.
And yet we still stay in the sandbox they've created, doing our little debt-filled lives, hoping our credit score goes up so we can borrow more.
Modern life is a prison.
It's true. Whatever gives them more power is all that's of concern. then you have millions of people in earnest claiming these are Christians under attack for being Christians. This is the stupidest timeline.
