Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

C'mon! That's just locker room talk. You can't take that seriously.

/s because that's exactly what his MAGoos will claim

I remember being a teenager, too. But then i became an adult and learned about other people's personal boundaries and realized how much of our "locker room talk" was wildly offensive.

Sadly, you're right.

I had locker room jobs most of my life. I never heard anyone claim to be a rapist. Not once.

Yeah, it's bullshit. It was when half of America accepted it that i started to really worry that Trump might win.

"I like soldiers who didn't get captured."

And most of them fly the black POW/MIA flag next to their MAGoo banners

And have both thin blue line and don't tread on me stickers on either side of a Punisher logo.

In the comics The Punisher knows he's crazy. He always tells people that if they want a hero go to Captain America [In the comics, Steve Roger's super power is that he's always on the right side.]

No, those braindead dip shits still claim the election was stolen and fraud and everything.
