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!

They wear their title proudly. Openly admit it in the streets.
And yet for some reason, are allowed to continue to operate freely.
Our country goes to war for less.
Edit: A friend of mine got this shoved in their mailbox today
Totally not domestic terrorists...
Against brown people.
When was the last time the US bombed a white country?
Yugoslavia 1999
Weirdly enough, it was also to help save Muslim people. White Muslims, but still.
If you'll forgive me for taking an opportunity to rant a bit, I once saw a hexbear saying Bernie was terrible because he voted to "carpet bomb" Yugoslavia. Besides the fact that carpet bombing by air isn't how things work anymore, this is one of the least objectionable things the US military has done post-cold war.
Can you provide a list of “white countries”?
"beasts of the field"... What is this? Reads like some Klan shit.
A few sentences later. Oh.
Jesus, is this real??
Yup
I don't see anything in that link confirming that this is real. It talks about a thing from 2 years ago.
I mean, if you're just trying to say they're proud pieces of shit, that's known. But not what they asked.
Besides checking these address and phone number (did anyone check them?), the printer that produced these may be IDed if it leaves special secret marks:

What for? It's not illegal to distribute flyers.
If they were shoved in the mailbox without postage it's definitely illegal.
🤦
I saw Hasan Piker share that KKK flyer yesterday on his stream. It's fucking disgusting, with the font and everything.
I was apprehensive about using the term Nazi to describe conservatives because I didn't want to group them all under that banner, but there's no hiding it anymore. I'm going to use this language around my friends and family until and after the election in hopes of setting there minds straight. We are literally watching the coming of the Fourth Reich. Fuck
Wow… that font choice.
10 years ago, this would have looked like something out of a dystopian movie.
If it was in their mailbox and had no postage, report it to your post office. That's illegal and the postmaster can hit them up for postage due.
