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!

Seeing as we're friends, I'll share with you my favourite Shakespear quote:
"Cowards die many times before their deaths. The brave taste of death but once." (Julius Caesar, Act 2 Scene 2)
Tell that to all* the voters who claim they would vote for someone else, "but can't let tfg win!"
Cool story, bro. I don't have to explain myself to you at all.
And I'm not even voting for Jill Stein.
You really do need to explain yourself if you want to come in here and try to shill for a russian asset. For someone who continually claims to "not be voting for Jill Stein" you certainly seem to be taking every opportunity to post about her. I guess it keeps you off the front lines though.
Actually, no. No, I don't.
If you believe any part of the article is inaccurate, I encourage you to reach out to the news organization that published it. If you think the article doesn't align with the community guidelines, feel free to contact the moderators. Thank you!

I don't have to explain my actions to you. I didn't write the article.

No need to explain yourself to me. But since you’re “not voting for Jill Stein” yet continually post articles about her, it would perhaps be beneficial, not for me but for this community in general, to understand what your motivation is in that regard.
I don't have to explain anything to you.

I don't have to explain anything to you. Thanks.
And there we have it. When called out on your behaviour and your fallacy stripped away, your only recourse is to ignore, and repeat the same words. Perhaps you don't have to and didn't want to, but you have actually "explained" yourself quite adequately by your responses.
I don't have to explain anything to you.
Then why keep asking? Stay mad. I don't care. :)
This you?
