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!

You're asking if I am a film projector?
You've lost the plot.
I'm pointing out that you're projecting. Thanks for proving me right, I guess 🤷
Ahhh.
What exactly do you think the person who said, "Israel isn't 100% funding AIPAC and that it isn't a Israeli government body but rather a lobby group comprised of Americans" is projecting? Besides the facts, obviously.
You are arguing against a guy correcting the record about AIPAC by claiming he is an antisemite.
I don't personally have to be bright myself to be brighter than you in this situation.
Was there anything else you felt you needed to say?
Nope. Neither of those claims are true.
You're repeating a lie, not correcting any.
I said that you were engaging in an antisemitic trope, not that you were doing so because you're an antisemite yourself but rather because you believe the lies of antisemitic Zionists.
Guess what? Not believing your false claims don't reflect on my intelligence in one direction or the other.
Your dogged insistence on your nonsense being established facts, however, reflects poorly on either how honest you are, how intelligent you are, how mentally stable you are, or more than one of the above.
You think it's not true that AIPAC is comprised of American citizens?
You really should research something before you decide to be against it. You would look foolish less often, I promise.
American citizens acting on behalf of and coordinating with the Israeli government, yes.
Judging by how you have no idea how it operates, YOU could probably do with more research 🙄
Of all the sentences to completely bungle 😄
So not only have you accused me of being brainwashed into holding antisemitic beliefs by some American Jews, you are now accusing those same 3 million American Jews of holding allegiance to a foreign government over their own nation.
Please, continue.
You know what? Fuck it. You're just going to repeat the same strawmen and other fabrications no matter what I say or don't say. I'm not going to waste any more time on your Hasbara-poisoned ass.
I hope the rest of your day is as pleasant as you have been throughout this conversation.
I have been incredibly pleasant to you, so thank you for wishing me a good day.
