politics
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!

Yet another rich, entitled, white moron with power.
Ugh, I only have one of those qualities. :-(
Sorry, dummy.
Yikes, insult people for things they can change, not things they were born with
How about folks like that stop hoarding their money, use their white, rich entitlement to help others for a fucking change, not sleep through their education that was handed them, and learn to give a fuck? Seems to cover all the bases you're worried about, sport.
Ok buddy. Go ahead and use people's intrinsic properties (like race, or orientation, or gender, or medical status) as an insult. Very cool. Really supports the rest of the point you're making
Rich white entitled fucks, like the GOP, are the problem. Folks that take that point sideways in an attempt to negate it in are also the problem. Being a spin doctor to distract doesn't clarify, but obfuscates. I don't side with assholes like Patronis. I don't side with traitors like the GOP. I don't censor my disdain for those who suck rich folks off. It sounds more like a 'you' problem than a 'me' problem if that's how you take what I said. Buddy.
You are being a racist. You wouldnt speak of any other race or orientation like that. Thought I left racists on Reddit.
The rest of the points, the gop, the rich, the corrupt, the entitled. Yeah. I hate them too. I hate racists too as well.
