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!

On Hexbear and .ml seething that Trump isn't going to win.
Fuck Hexbear, Russian trolls, and tankies everywhere.
Be careful, some people from there will bring up one thread where they called Putin a far-right fuckface!
You mean, evidence?
If you say that someone thinks / says something, without any evidence, and I bring evidence of the contrary, I think this is far from being anecdotal.
Oh no I was using a person as a metaphor. Just replace person with community.
Okay, then the proper criticism is that you're a liar, typical of MLs. 🤷♂️
Want to change your argument again, or are you going to give up?
I mean, I'm not the one saying there was such a thread. The guy above is.
Just saying that if there is evidence of such, why wouldn't it be okay to point it out?
I also notice you seem to have trouble understanding what I'm typing from time to time. Just calm down and reread the conversation.
.ml here, I hope he goes to prison for a very long time.
Granted I knew nothing of the differences between .ml, hexbear, etc at the time I joined, and still kinda don't. To be fair I question what the hell im doing half the time anyway lmao.
Maybe someone that is a little more involved in the different servers could shine some light? Cause man I get frustrated seeing some of the stuff I do, even when I try to tailor my feed to certain subs it still bleeds through lol.
.ml is run by tankies. They ban people for criticizing China and Russia.
I just joined an instance that was towards the top of the list, I didn't do any research into the difference between them.
Tankies like Trump? I thought they favored that one woman, unfortunately her name escapes me at this moment.
Jill the Spoiler Candidate Stein? Of course they'd like her, she's in bed with the Russian government.
Thank you, that's her.
Tankies like whatever is bad for America or good for Russia with no other considerations. Trump is bad for America and good for Russia.
I do understand Tankies are generally anti-America but your logic of them being anti-American and thus pro-Trump doesn't fit for what I see on Lemmy.
de la cruz
The baseball player?
What are you on about? As a mainliner hexer we would be happy to see Trump not living, just look at the response when he was shot or got covid.
Yes, we wish the fascist is dead, but the things we talk about will put the fascists in power. Somehow putting the fascist in power will definitely end up killing them and not giving them everything they ever wanted. Trust us.
Add this account to the victims of communism tally. One gorillion and one!
... I don't think anyone on .ml is mad about Trump not winning. And yeah, Trump is too old. Of course Biden was worse, but Trump's cognitive abilities are also not good enough to lead a country.
I don't think lemmy.ml is full of tankies
I just know that tankies are explicitly allowed all over ML
And they do love Trump
>".ml doesn't have terrible people"
>has an .ml account.
😐
Hey, I'm sorry I didn't get a PhD in “Lemmy instance vibe checking” before I chose to go for the devs’ instance.
Fuck Trump, and fuck generalizing tribalism.
That's a ridiculous oversimplification of what I said, but go on
The simplification is ridiculous because the statement itself was too.
What's ridiculous with what I said?
