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!

No one said it was.
If you can vote for a president who not only went around Congress to fund a genocide, but also went around Congress to prevent aid to the victims...
That's your decision that you will have to live with
Maybe that's not a big deal for you. Maybe it's harder on me because I'm a third generation disabled veteran.
But everyone has a line. I truly help the DNC gets better before your line is crossed.
I hope you do understand that Trump isn't any better in this regard - he isn't just going to continue funding Israel like Biden currently is, he's already expressed his full support of Netanyahu's genocidal actions and will seek to help him further.
You can choose not to vote, but understand that if enough people come in with that same attitude, Trump will win, because his supporters don't care what his policies on Israel are, they just want him to win.
What's the point of not replying to one comment, scrolling down, and trying to start a new chain with the same person?
Like, I've explained everything you're asking about multiple times already... If you can't understand it, maybe it's because you're jumping around this thread and replying randomly to different comments?
I just don't see the point, unless you're intentionally just trying to waste people's time.
I know understanding complicated political issues is hard, and I 100% understand if you just give up. But don't go to the same thread and reply to the same person to have the same conversation you gave up on.
