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!

Yeah man i fucking hate making sure americans can afford to live their goddamn lives and maybe spend some of that time with their families?
No? Just work and missiles for war criminals? Fuck off.
I hope you guys on the left understand the assignment is to retake the party from the dumb fucks in my older generation (Gen X specifically, but also the Boomers who haven't croaked yet.) We think we know but we don't. We/they are wrong. The center can win you a battle but it will never ever win the fucking war. Go win the war.
They try to pull right because they are right, their only job is to make sure actual left never rises.
All these people only care about their immediate families, rich buddies and hoarding as much property and wealth as possible.
We need to stop having faith in them and rise up in action to establish true democracy.
Ok do it?
Perhaps another scheduled nonviolent demonstration? No Kings XIII?
You’re right. Most of the people in this country probably need to pushed to the point of starvation to violently revolt. The problem is, who will be the first person to start? Trying to do it as one person is pointless.
