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!

You need to watch Beau of the Fifth Column.
If you want to build a leftist movement it has to start local. Run for the school board. Build a community network
Don't let the fascists win because of the Democrats not being left enough.
You build the coalition from the bottom up, not from the top down.
I vote against fascism,and I vote against genocide. You give me a Democratic candidate that can do better than "I sidestep congress to fund genocide instead of sidestepping congress to commit genocide" and I'll vote for them. 🤷
I can't get over the fact that yall claim to be the "good guys" by backing full fascism in 4 years instead of this year. It's still fascism my guy. Yall keep yelling at us that it's OUR fault for not backing local antifascism, but SPOILERS - YOU'RE THE ONES BACKING FASCISTS.
You keep backing fascism then taking some sort of high ground for doing so. Get the fuck out of here. YOU ARE THE BAD GUYS BECAUSE YOU'RE STILL VOTING FOR FASCISM. You don't magically become the good guy for voting fascist locally as well as nationally.
I read your comment five times over and still don't know what point you're trying to make. It seems like you're insistent on being contrarian and using the "both sides" argument we got back in 2016. Luckily, being through it once made us smarter. Good try, though.
Tell your troll farm buddies to your left and right that we say hi.
You mean like how you keep telling everyone the only way to avoid the guy who wants to sidestep congress to enable genocide is the guy who sidestepped congress multiple times to enable genocide?
You can accuse me of being a troll all you want, but you're the one arguing the only thing that can save us from the far right is moving the mid right further right. GTFO with that shit. 😂
But hey, thanks for adding more evidence to my original point that leftists are far more your enemy than Republicans ever were.
Yep this guy's gonna do well in the camps.
You guys need to drop the "liberals" are going to a camp garbage. If the already thinning out Republicans try to attack urban areas in the US they just set themselves for utter defeat as the Spanish attack them from the south, White Americans from the West and East, and Canadians from the North. 30% of Americans will live in the middle of nowhere aren't coming to put us in camps.
Tldr: Stop threatening me with a good time.
