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!

"This is not cool. I already graduated, but if I was a student right now I would be livid if that was happening. Not only I can't stop Netanyahu from bombing civilians neither can my university."
And a lot of students would join the protests. Like, sorry being made aware of an active genocide on your way to class was annoying to you. What the fuck? People are being raped and murdered by a state that has complete control over them while you have the privilege of going to college.
No one expects you or your university to stop this, that's why people protest, so that people who do have that level of influence are made to do something.
What about other genocides happening right now? Why does no one care about them?
Yes, this one is special, but it is special, because here both sides want to wipe each other out. Israel just has an advantage right now, but in 1947 was the reverse.
Non shitbags care about all genocides. This one happens to have the genociders being openly backed by the US. We're not talking about 70 years ago.
"Waaaaahhhhhh why won't they let me call for the destruction of Israel in peace??????? :( :( :("
