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!

What's a protest voter?
People who didn't vote Harris because the Democrats have stood by and aided a genocide.
A fascist
Weren't you the one who was telling me a couple months ago that Arab Americans in Dearborn who refused to vote for Biden because of Gaza were fascists?
Doubt it. And surely you're not someone who would misrepresent an argument.
They were fascists because they supported and voted for Donald Trump.
They apparently immediately regretted that decision the day after election Day, and while I commend the ones who admitted their ignorance, they still openly supported a fascist. That makes you a fascist.

This u?
Sometimes it is mind blowing to enter the liberal headspace where the definition of fascism is based on how the subject arrived at the fascist conclusion, and how the test of fascism is how they outwardly express it. It's all just vibes. Hitler should've just explained how he was "fooled", and he'd be a-ok in your book.
And this idea of liberals always selling out socialists and minorities as a first thing will still be lost on you.
Oh yeah sounds like me. That wasn't what you originally said though was it?
No, how is irrelevant. If you support a fascist you are a fascist. It's really that fucking simple, and there's only one group of people that doesn't seem to like this truth.
Please help us understand the mental gymnastics you use to reconcile these two ideas.
I think you need to look up the word "unwittingly" because you don't seem to know what it means based on what you're accusing this person of saying.
Do you not understand cause and effect? No gymnastics involved, my friend, it's a direct line. I'm honestly unsure how I could be more clear, and it makes me wonder if you're genuine.
