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!

Whoa - that got dark 😳
Sorry I stirred up such angry feelings in you. I thought we were just having a friendly conversation.
As I have told you many times in our previous conversations. Oops! I mean, we are new friends. So we couldn't have had many previous conversations. Right?!
Anyway, I'm not angry at all.
I'm just saying that other guy, who you are totally absolutely not, that HE is pathetic and sad. What makes you think I would be angry? Just talking about how sad some other guy is for stalking me under various usernames on this platform.
You know what would be funny tho?! Us talking about someone who is really you because you are under a different screen name?! Wouldn't that just beat all?! Right? Wouldn't that be crazy?!
Ohhh man. Really glad that's not happening. Whew, right?! I mean, can you imagine how pathetic and sad that guy would be for having yet another screen name and still stalking me. All just because I am not voting for his candidate?
But nah, that couldn't possibly be you. Right? We are way too friendly! Right? Sharing movie tips, and things. You know, staying civil and all...
We have talked before, and it has always been friendly except one time I asked you to give me space and you refused.
I have never talked to you with an alt account, though. I can be 100% sure because I don’t have any alt accounts on Lemmy.
It sounds like you’re tilting at windmills. I hope you’re doing ok. You know; mentally and everything.
Best of luck 🍀
