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!

It's close and Team Trump are working hard to exploit that. They have legal teams working around the clock finding ways to ratfuck this election.
Fucking vote like your life depends on it, because if you're like me, it literally does.
The changes Trump wants to make will make me lose access to my healthcare and succumb to my cancer. My medications are $18k+ a month without insurance.
I don't even really like Harris, but I like being alive.
I know, Palestinian kids like being alive, too, but we've made fuck-all headway on that issue in a year, and as sad as it is to say, Trump would just help Netanyahu wipe Palestine off the map, so Harris is the only realistic choice I've got. I have cancer, it's not like I can personally swoop in and save Gaza. Sorry.
No need to apologize if you ask me.
Cheers, mate. It's a contentious issue and I can understand people feeling all kinds of ways about like they're voting to support a genocide. I feel that way, too... but I'm also keenly aware how much worse Trump and Republicans are on the same issue.
It's an issue that, really has nothing to do with Americans or this election and yet ppl like you keep interjecting the topic in every thread as if screeching genocide is going to turn anyone into a single issue voter...smh.
In a 2 party system Harris is Palestines best chance at still existing.
Full stop.
Now you.
stay safe and you do you. its one of the fundamental rights we are trying to protect - the right for each of us to be safe from these weirdos in our own minds and bodies.
it helps that our priorities appear to align.
