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!

For a group that talks shit about "snowflakes" always crying about everything, they sure like to cry about everything
Correct. Doesn't matter what side your on, everybody bitches about everything. It's the same shit forever. Vote for literally anyone you want because it literally doesn't matter.
Spoken like someone who isn't being demonized daily by a certain party and having your basic rights legally stripped away.
You know nothing about me. But if you want to play that game, what rights are being stripped away? Unless something new happened, no one is trying to rewrite the constitution. So unless you're trying to be a perpetual victim, yes it literally doesn't matter. The last few decades show that.
They literally show the opposite. But since you clearly have never had to debate your right to exist, then you get to think it doesn't matter. Your indifference is a luxury not everyone gets, but I understand your blind spot. No matter what, YOUR rights won't change.
But one party, explicitly wants to ban my ability to seek health care, so my and many other peoples access to medicine WOULD change with a vote. Being indifferent to this simply isn't an option.
Well you literally asked for examples. But if all you got is insults then whatever, I'm done here. You have a good day.
Removed, rule 3:
Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (perjorative, perjorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (perjorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect!
You won't get far arguing policy and calling mods enforcing that policy idiots. Banned.
Get banned again for ban evasion? I can do this all day. It literally takes zero effort on my part.
