Democrats put their brightest minds together and this is what they came up with.
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!

Why not Trump?
No good ideas. Everything is say first, think later. No actionable real plan. Firing people for no reasons and many other things
Sign the petition
What is this, Facebook in 2005?
They don't give a fuck what we have to say.
Exactly, my name isn’t gonna enough; Elon: …did dan69 sign it? Petitioner: oh yah!! Elon: I desist. This will never happen even in my dreams..
Idgaf, sign the damn thing
You shilling for whatever the fuck the “Working Party Family” is? Forcing me to join shit makes this an absolute no go.
I agree he's horrible and should go, but sorry... a petition will do nothing.
im not frigging taking the fact they raiding my social security money, f that
They're not going to raid Social Security -- they even understand that will get the plebes to storm the gates.
They're going to insert themselves into the payment stream. A penny here. A penny there: pretty soon Trump and Musk are personally much richer.
You know, corporate accounts is sure as hell gonna notice $305,326.13 Michael!
Do they have conjugal visits in prison?
No no no we're going to federal pound me in the ass prison.
they even understand that will get the plebes to storm the gates.
But that's exactly what they want!
Then get out and protest. Stop doing useless shit like these online petitions
He will hunt down all the petitioners and harass them. That's the only thing a petition will do at this point.
As Desantis did before them
Petitions are useless. Organizing and showing up in person are the only way forward.
Results-based action. Historical precedent. Spread and organize with labor groups.
sure. whatever - just get on WHP list and help fight the system
I think you'll find that it's much easier to fight the system when you aren't on its lists.
To those saying petitions are useless, you are wrong. They are an organizing tool to get a list of people who share a common goal. This list can then be used by organizers to mobilize people for different actions.
I signed because I'm stupid and angry, but I'm not a fan of this at the very bottom...
"By taking action on this page, I affirm my intent to join or continue as a member of the Working Families Party, and to receive periodic updates from WFP."
How about just take the goddamn signature and do good things, don't pull some fine print bullshit tyvm.
I found most of the comments useless but yeah thats a non starter.
Protest. Call your representatives. Email them. Call them again. Protest. That's how you get attention and let them know what you want.
Signing a petition does nothing.
I mean sure sign a petition. It probably wont hurt but I'm not holding my breath on it doing anything
Probably more important that you go buy a gun at this point and learn to garden as well. We're going to need food and bullets
