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!

It's gotta be exhausting using a social media platform whose content is 100% politics all the time and its entire existence is in itself a political statement. Like, people complain about politics on Lemmy but at least you can sort of just ignore it and scroll past it. Yes, it's invasive, but there are places where political discussion is pretty much verboten, especially the casual conversation areas.
Meanwhile, I doubt there's a single post on Truth Social that isn't politics-adjacent somehow, or if it isn't it quickly becomes one as people praise Trump for the good things happening in their life or curse Trump's enemies when bad things happen to them. "Took a big shit today. Real satisfying. God Bless the USA and DJT.". "Anybody notice how chip bags are mostly just air now? We should prosecute the democrats for this.".
Surprised anybody still uses the platform, tbh.
You forget that these people find the very existence of brown and black people exhausting. As a result, their stupid little safe space being full of political nonsense is still less stressful to them than the real world.
