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
maybe if this wasnt a fucking election stunt, wecd care more. I don't expect this to be enforced.
Biden does a bad thing: See? He's just like Trump!
Biden does a moderate thing: See? He's not as left as he should be!
Biden does a good thing early in his term: See? He's not doing enough yet!
Biden does a good thing halfway into his term: See? It's just to help the Dems in the midterm!
Biden does a good thing late in his term: See? He's just trying to appease the people who might vote for him!
but he's not stopping he genocide.
if he protected trans rights and stopped the genocide, sure. I might consider it. too little too late, dude.
See? He's just like Trump! And he's not doing enough! And the things he has done are only to help secure votes!
Edit to add: Also, my dude, did you forget which post this is on? He's literally protecting trans people with this move but it's still not enough. Fact is you wouldn't support him even if he led the revolution himself. He's not perfect, but he's done more to clean up Trump's mess and help marginalized people than any president in history.
the problem with that is I expect it to revert the day after the election, or at least not be maintained.
Sorry, you expect Biden to undo it if he is elected? Or do you just mean that it will be removed if Trump wins. Of course if Trump wins he'll undo whatever of Biden's work he can. I don't have any reason at all to think Biden would remove it after the election if he won. Why wouldn't he maintain it?
Yeah, it's good, for now. Vote to keep it that way.
And cross your fingers that Thomas has a heart attack soon.
but no option on the ballot does that. joe is barely more honest than don. guess I'm not voting.
Jesus Christ dude, do I need to link you the list of Trump lies told in his four years? What had Biden lied about that's even close to that!? Trump averaged multiple lies in a day and you're here saying they are basically the same. If you want Trump to win just vote for him instead of pretending it's some principled stand against Biden.
damn, gun violence is crazy, as a gun owner i guess i should just shoot myself huh.
(hello mods, hi, this is satire, i'm satirizing, pls don't kill me, kthnx bye)
Which party is speaking out against it? And which party has 99% supporting it?
neither party is speaking out against it. neither party has stopped funding them.
empty words are empty.
points to all the democrats speaking out against it
I can’t tell if you’re a troll or you just don’t read political news. If it’s an innocent mistake, that’s one thing…
they don't mean it. their powerlessness is strategic, as it (almost) always is.
“I know what other people think so you should trust me instead of listening to those people!”
Okay?
if they meantit, abortion wouk still be legal.
How? By impeaching and removing SCOTUS justices? Dems don’t have the votes for that
could have done it in Congress. could have done a lot of things. Or maybe the system is just bullshit and will never protect us and none of this matters. either way.
No, you can’t do it in Congress. Like it or no, SCOTUS ruled you can’t.
then scouts is invalid and laws are invalid, and a thug with a gun is just a thug with a gun; badge or no.
