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!

Are they still figuring out how magnets work?
If Richard Feynman can't explain it in a way he's satisfied with himself, I'm okay with rapping clowns being open about not understanding it.
Hell ya, I always send the Feynman video about this when it comes up. What a great communicator.
That's why I'm surprised they endorsed Harris. Trump doesn't know how they work either. You'd think they would find friendship in their common imbecility.

Stupid people like to be in the room where they're the smartest. Smart people like to be in the room where they're the dumbest.
I like to be in the room with people who are a mix so that some of them can teach me things I don't know and I can teach others things they don't know.
Does that make me smart or stupid?
It makes you right, my comment was a very broad generalisation to make a point.
What is this magnet thing with juggalos?
A verse from Miracles, implying that magnets are miraculous: Water, fire, air, and earth / Fuckin' magnets, how do they work?
Another, often quoted from the same track: I don't wanna talk to no scientists / Y'all fuckers be lying, and getting me pissed
Mystery solved! Thank you!!
