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.

- 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!

Considering they are more crazy than weird, it may seem dumb:
Republican Senate candidate Royce White:
This is insane, because they claim to support personal freedoms, but in reality they don't. Instead they criticize it and discriminate against it.
Perfect example of being weird.
Calling them insane or crazy would probably not have as good an effect, because it would be considered overboard hyperbole, despite it's not.
That actually makes sense. Calling them weird is something that goes against their values that they can’t really reclaim because it’s too mild
That's a rather "weirdly" specific thing to call out there Royce. Are you trying to tell us something?
They also like to embrace being called "crazy", like they're daring mavericks who are ahead of their time or something. Y'know, "fine line between genius and crazy" and all that. But weird really strikes at the core of who they are, at this notion that, fundamentally, they represent the "correct" way of being, and everyone else is wrong.
When you have an ideology built on destroying everything that deviates from your accepted norms, being "Normal" is the most important thing in the world.
