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!

I love sauerkraut. I'd rather get kicked in the balls than hear his voice.
Sauerkraut/kimchee is a weird cheat code that doctors don't really understand...
Like, it's basically "free" salt. Germans and Koreans both consume way too much salt and should have a bunch of heart issues due to it as populations...
But they don't.
It's nothing genetic, nothing lifestyle related, it's just that most of their salt is on a bunch of cabbage and for some reason that makes it ok.
Probably better off just eating cabbage or any leafy vegetable though, it's weird how much people oppose salads yet claim they can't lose weight.
But sauerkraut/kimchee is way more palatable and apparently the salt doesn't matter.
Salt really doesn't matter if you're both properly hydrated, and get significant amounts of potassium. Bonus if you sweat frequently from exercise
I make my own sauerkraut and it's about 1 tblsp per lb of cabbage. Which honestly isn't too bad compared to other UPFs
Sauerkraut promotes a healthy gut microbiome.
Almost like we should just eat a wide variety of foods.
Where do people get their science. Salt is why we have kidneys. Only people with certain types of hypertension have to avoid sodium in the diet. Heart problems in Germany are due to obesity.
Ah, and those hamburgers and fries are all salt free for some reason?
Better put kimchi on top
What?!
Like, what the fuck are you even talking about?
