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!

Dishonest? Nice claim, care to back it up? If you can?
The standard is simple; provide something beyond a surface level claim. Or at least make an effort to make the claim seem reasonable. In this example, the original commenter you've jumped to defend portrays the dems as if its all their fault... but is it? As mentioned, there is the figurative elephant (gop) in the room, and all the shit they do, but ... No, the focus was on having selected biden. Not only that but also implying the blm marches were the root cause. But what about the reason for the marches? Or the actions by the elephant? Its not that the context doesnt exist just because, we all know it does. So, to then argue as if that context is gone... why should we take that as a serious and legit addition to the conversation, when its really not?
Its also amusing to see you call me/us "dishonest", as it seems to be the exact thing you are currently doing. Theres a word for this, and it is, besides being a tried and true tactic of the elephant: projection. Accusing others of what you yourself are or have been doing yourself.
So how about it?
One word: projection.
You didnt criticize for shit, just a meager and baseless accusation. Bye bye.
Also, to actually jump to using a wish for someone to get shot, either as suicide or by aomeone else, well there aremt that many other eays that tops that one in showing a frankly hillarious lack of a real point or argument.
Tl;dr: you suck at presenting an actual argument. Are you a genuine child, or a poorly educated adult?
Lol you're the only one projecting pal. Go defend your worthless allies elsewhere
Lol, I'm sincerely hoping you are a kid because all you have done so far is when you found out no one is taking your baseless opinions as anything other then angry ranting is you basically just started saying nuh uh. Hopefully someday you educate yourself and learn how to actually have a debate.
Also, to be clear, no one here considers you a threat. At most you are a nuisance at this point. So really no need to defend anyone from you.
