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!

MODERATORS
So again, I have other accounts. Not just this one. And I’ve gotten comments removed from them with no reason.
Additionally…. My comment was in context of what I was responding to. Yet- that comment remains. Only mine was removed.
You people clearly don’t read the discussions, you just knee-jerk react to whiny kids complaining because people are disagree with them. You don’t understand that this is a game to them. They start arguments, and bait people into getting themselves banned because they know there’s a mod bias.
We often get reports where it's an internet slap fight top to bottom, and that's not necessarily visible in the mod log.
It IS visible in the reporting system where two people are reporting each other repeatedly and the mods are basically being asked to be mom or dad, the general consensus in those cases is "I don't care who started it, both of you go to your rooms!" :)
Best advice I can give you is do not take the bait, do not feed the trolls. ;)
Yeah. I’m be harassed on an other account. I’ve reported this person for spamming/stalking me…. You guys haven’t done shit about. Their comments are still there.
So tell me again how there’s no mod bias?
Link me to a thread, I'll take a look.
The problem in threads like this is that these kids report everything they disagree with, and people with an ounce of maturity don’t. I’m fine if someone wants to mouth off. So I don’t report it. Yet when I respond in kind, I’m the bad guy- they’re the victim, and my comments get removed.
These kids are playing you. They’re running the show and you’re culling the herd for them.
So you want me to post a link to one of my alt account publicly? Don’t you have a mod log of complaints? Check for the one where multiple reports of harassment were submitted.
That’d be the dipshit you’re doing nothing about.
No, you can PM me anything you'd like me to look at, just keep in mind, as a moderator I can only take action in the communities I'm assigned to, but I can reach out to other mods and site admins.
It’s here in politics.
I see the new reports, I'll PM you.
