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
Hi SirDerpy. I think that the downvotes you are getting reflect disagreement with your opinions and it’s one thing I wish hadn’t translated from Reddit to this type of community. Too bad there aren’t “up/down votes for contribution” along side a set of others for agree/disagree. I perceive that your comments are thoughtful from your point of view, and I feel they contribute to the conversation. As such I am upvoting them.

FUCK you, I won't do what you tell me!
(In case there's any doubt, this Raging Against you is purely a silly bit, not meant as a totally uncalled for personal attack 😁)
I’ve been using the name since my first bbs login in 94. Band formed in 2001.
Also screw Bert Kreischer for making people assume I am an imitating fan!
Took you a while to piss them off enough that they formed a band about it, I guess 😁
Screw that hack in general, really..
Hey now, don't make assumptions! That could very well be Florence, after all.
Nah, it's Florence AND The Machine, not Florence The Machine.
Now that you mention it, though, I wonder whether Florence ever had beef with Tom Morello 🤔
Foiled again!
Seems I want to share. I've been at this, off and on, for a long time.
I say the basically the same things over time. As we as a society slowly progress in our collective understanding the reaction to those things suddenly changes. For example, they hated what I had to say about Biden stepping down until he did and everyone could see the results. The reaction to identical comments was reversed overnight.
I'm not here to be safe, politic, or popular. I don't want everyone to agree with me. I only want them to learn their systems, to reason their perspectives, and to communicate them with adequate nuance to be easily respected.
I appreciate you. I assume there's ten like you for every one that speaks up. Sincerely, thank you for speaking up and for reading this comment. It feels good to be understood.
I cannot parse this comment. The wording is, at best, awkward
