Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Incredible that this amount of cognitive dissonance can fit into one sentence.

motherfucker is tryna justify genocide dude, thats not a hill to die on.

[–] zerog_bandit 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I hate genocide, like the genocide that Hamas committed on 10/7.

i'm sure you are sadder for the couple israeli dead by hamas than the ones killed by the idf themselves.

and i'm guessing the tens of thousands dead and many more expelled by us bombs are not people to you.

You sure seem to put a lot of words in my mouth for someone who believes that a genocide wasn't perpetrated on 10/7.

most of the people you killed are children 👉👌

When you crossed the border on 10/7 and murdered Israeli babies in their cribs, did you realize that you were calling down a firestorm on your Hamas brothers?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

when you believed such stupid conspiracy theory, did you consider they just wanted to justify genocide?

oh i guess thats the excuse you wanted all along to murder woman and children in gaza.

I think the entire current situation in Palestine is a conspiracy. I don't think a single Palestinian has been killed. I think 100% of them were Hamas.
