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!

Another design they're using, peak democracy

[–] Jaderick 37 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Cause it’s a fucking dope sticker.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago

I’m pretty partial to trucker deer.

[–] Snailpope 9 points 2 months ago

It really is a fucking dope sticker.

[–] MegaUltraChicken 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I will be bringing this issue up to my election officials here in Colorado. It's a travesty we don't get dope stickers like this.

[–] grue 11 points 2 months ago (2 children)

It could be worse: in Georgia, our "I voted" stickers were replaced with right-wing propagandistic "I secured my vote" stickers.

[–] MegaUltraChicken 8 points 2 months ago

Yeah okay, our stickers don't actively make me mad so I guess I'm not that bad off.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

The fuck does that even mean?

[–] ATDA 15 points 2 months ago

This is so stupid fun I love it.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

For added entertainment they should sell a souvenir tear away t-shirt that you can rip off when you exit the polling booth.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Demand better of your government, like cool t-shirt giveaways.

Lots of furries living in Michigan apparently.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Apparently there is a correlation to colder climates. I know quite a few that are in that area.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Heh. It’s because fursuits are hot.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

I love how this comment can go either way.

Hurry, because you must be a resident for at least 30 days by Election Day in order to vote in it.

I rather like this one from Washington:

[–] billwashere 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They should sell these. I’d buy some.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'd like it on a tshirt, now that I think about it.

[–] billwashere 1 points 2 months ago

Yep. Totally would buy one.
