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!

Then you good.
Each according to thier ability.
The thing that drives the world nuts is when people in the US are like "not my responsibility".
Crazy, considering the person who spurred on this whole thread was blanket assuming that everyone in the country is allowing this to happen.
How'd you manage to miss that and then write this comment?
Haven't you heard? You have to say "I'm working as hard as I can to undermine him" in every thread you participate in, or else you're complicit with fascism. Those are the magic words. If you say them, you good (at least until the next conversation).
You might as well add it to your email signature just in case, so you won't be a target during "the revolution," as these people insist is actually going to happen.
In case you need it: /s
Yeah! I mean, not ALL men, right ladies?
Appealing to a shitty argument to try to justify your shitty argument is a strategy. Let's see if it pays off for you
(It didn't)
We're different people and I was offering another more understanding voice to the mix. You may notice my bar was actually just "anything more than just saying not my problem" which I actually thought was pretty generous and is wildly telling that even that was triggering to you.
What do you want? Me to do the sign of the cross and give a blanket absolution to all Americans on behalf of the rest of the world?
"Go, my children, your country may ravage the world I absolve you". In the name of the father the son nato UN and all humanity. I offer this to all citizens of the USA, Russia, and Israel as they decimate civilians in illegal wars. Would be kinda shitty of me to not hand it out to them too, right? I mean... what can they do about it? Not really THIER problem, right? We're all being a little judgemental by suggesting Russia get out of Ukraine or Israel out of Gaza, right? Let em in eurovision. Let em in the Olympics.
Not sure who I am to give it but if im giving that cool guy a break, I may as well give you one too, despite you being a total cunt. Not sure why you care (REALLY wish you'd introspect on that though, is it possible the uncomfort that makes you wanna lash out is that you know at some level you, as an american, are uniquely positioned to save the world like hollywood told you your whole life was your birthright, and instead you're on the internet mad at foreigners pointing out your country is mudering civilians? That discord must be HARD).
By clearly demonstrating a lack of understanding. Great, I won't bother reading the rest of this.
Where are you from?
