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!

What am I supposed to be taking away from this? Why is this presented like it's evidence of an argument?
I posted this three days ago.
68 upvotes. That means at least 68 people understood what I was saying.
You are the first person to ask 'what does it mean?'
So, even as baffled as you are, what was your wildest guess as to why I posted it, and why other people agreed with me.
If there were no upvotes, I might consider that I'd been too obscure. As it is, I question your understanding more than my position.
So you don't get it either?
Then why'd you post it?
My guess is you're trying to depict not landscaping the area as an act of disrespectful negligence, but... it's the outer part of a golf course. The outer part is supposed to be rough and harder to navigate, to punish people who hit their ball there.
Of course he wasn't going to bury her in the green, or the fairway. Those areas must be maintained, and there a gravestone would disrupt people who were hitting their ball accurately.
Am I way off-base here? You've chosen twice to be unhelpful as to your intended meaning now, so I'm not sure I'm bringing up points that will even resonate with you.
Yes.
If you were in a club and a comic made a joke you didn't understand, would you assume they didn't know what the joke was.
You are the only one posting about how confused you are.
Like I said, if I was getting a lot of people asking, I'd edit my comment.
At this point, I just assume you understand it, but you're playing the "Ignorance Is Strength" card.
You know, like when folks ask 'why do gays need to get married?"
Ok, well, I guess I'll never know what the problem is, then, since you are too stubborn to clear it up (or don't know yourself).
Does that confuse you too?
