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!

Okay buddy. You’re free to falsely accuse me of whatever you’d like. Until you get your boy elected, it’s a free country.
You falsely accuse me of being a trumpist constantly.
Like you do to anyone who doesn't support Netanyahu's genocide.
I'm voting for Biden. Lie about me all you want. Not that you need encouragement. You can't even tell the truth about ignoring me.
Sure thing bud. Keep defending those conservative bots. You’re only telling on yourself.
You can't defend your support for genocide, so you pretend that anyone who doesn't support genocide must be to your right. Vote for Biden if you can.
And you can’t defend your support for Trump. Sooo…. I guess it’s a stalemate.
I don't support Trump, no matter how much you interpret my opposition to the genocide you love as such.
And I don’t support genocide no matter how much you interpret my opposition to MAGA bots parading themselves around as far lefters.
Dude… you’re not getting the point I’ve tried to fucking tell you- over and over again!
I’m not accusing you of shit. If you’re legit- you’re fine. But you HAVE to know here are bad actors among you. And the fact that you STILL constantly come at me when I’m only trying to pull weeds from YOUR garden, makes me think you want them there.
If you’re not in favor of a Trump win and genuinely don’t support him in any way, then why not join me and the others in weeding out those among you that are there in bad faith?
I honestly don’t get your angle here.
You have no evidence whatsoever of these "maga bots" except that they oppose Netanyahu's genocide. That's not evidence. That's you making shit up about people you disagree with.
You keep calling me a trumpist.
Yeah, I'm talking to one. You constantly lie about the anti-genocide left because you want to discredit the left, opposition to genocide, or both.
I'm not going to join your personal mccarthyist inquisition against everyone to your left just because you've imagined that there's Russian psyops behind every rock.
Like I said last time you said this: I criticize those to my right. You should try it sometime.
Holy shit! I don’t think I have ever in my life seen someone choose what they want someone else to say more than you do. And the amount of people you do this to is…. Well. Everyone you disagree with. Your modlog show that.
So it seems you either have a VERY serious reading comprehension problem, or you’re willfully trolling.
My guess is it’s both.
I’m done wasting time with you on this, so go ahead and have the all important last word you always seem to so badly crave. I’m going to go ahead and take the high road out of this embarrassment of a discussion. I’ll be temporarily blocking you so I don’t even get notified that you responded. That’s how little I am interested in hearing what you have to say.
But don’t think to bring this up as some antagonistic bullshit excuse to accuse me of paying attention to your nonsense after I said I wouldn’t. You’re not that good of a troll. I’m just simply done with THIS discussion. As I was done with the other individual discussions.
I’ll be unblocking you when I feel it’s time to.
Until then….
Next time you badmouth the anti-genocide left for being both anti-genocide and to your left, I'll be there. And you will have conveniently unblocked me, just like you totally ignored me.
Decided to check in on you after Biden's performance at the debate, and I find you getting utterly trounced by someone who seems to be fully on the level. If you can't understand why someone would be at least hesitant to support Genocide Joe (while fully acknowledging that Genocide Donald is our only other option), I just can't take you seriously.
And if you’re willing to admit that you are fully aware that the genocide isn’t going to get any better under Trump and will actually become worse-
And still suggest people not vote for Biden….
I won’t just not take you seriously, I’ll assume you’re actively trying to get Trump elected.
