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!

Has anyone ever noticed that mtg looks like a wax life sized figure of a cave woman in the natural history display at the local museum?
Someone needs to give her a basket so she can gather some berries!
Yes
I feel like these ad homien attacks are what allow people like Marjorie to thrive. If all you can do is put someone down for how they look then I really don't need to listen to what you have to say.
It's unfortunate because there are way worse things about Marjorie than her looks.
I'm not saying ad hom is good, I'm saying she factually looks like a Neanderthal. If it's insulting to anyone, it's Neanderthals.
On the other hand, ridicule is the only way you can actually engage with someone like marge because you can't actually engage in good faith.
Just watched the new docu on Netflix about Neanderthals. Wow, you nailed it. She must have been frozen in a sheet of ice for a long time like Encino Man. Oh hell, now I've dated myself. For the young, it's a stupid movie from a long time ago. I think Sam (of Frodo fame) was in it. And another dude who you'd recognize. And a third dude who was popular for about ten seconds.
Stop weezin' the ju-uice, bu-uddy.
Hey, don't be rude. Cave women were far more civilized and intelligent. They don't deserve being compared to MTG!
I've heard that she is actually Dog the Bounty Hunter in drag. I mean, it is possible... has anyone seen the two of them in the same place at the same time. And the resemblance is uncanny!
