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 support endless availability of untraceable firearms, knowing that this makes more school shootings inevitable. Or are they just a price to pay so that other mass shooters can murder the minorities you openly hate right here on lemmy?
I've seen you advocate for cruelty against "illegals." How happy are you that the El Paso shooter took matters into his own hands in order to "protect the border" by shooting up a walmart? How happy did it make you when the Club Q shooter murdered the LGBTQ people you spent so much effort lying about on that recent thread about trans rights?
Simple. I'm sick of your shit. You cheer for cruelty. You spread bigotry. And then you whine like you're the most oppressed creature ever when someone tells you what you already know you are.
EDIT: And when you catch an instancewide ban, you come back with the same username on a different instance.
We've had "endless availability of untraceable firearms" since before mass manufacturing was invented. Mass shootings have only become popular in the past couple of decades. It is not the guns.
Wanting illegals to be deported is a good thing, and its racist to assume illegals are minority races.
No one likes mass shootings.
Wtf is wrong with you? Do you have reading comprehension issues? Are you so deep in your echochamber you think others to be genocidal monsters?
Sure. The mass shootings are being carried out with some object other than guns.
You wouldn't be calling them by the dehumanizing term "illegals" if they were white.
Bullshit. Gun manufacturers LOVE them. Every time some piece of shit carries out Republican policy in person, sales go up.
I'm tired of mass shootings. Just because you can't get enough of them, that doesn't mean there's anything wrong with me.
Knowing that Republicans cheer when a genocidal monster advocates for the eradication of trans people* is not the result of being an an echochamber. It's simply paying attention to what they're willing to say in public.
*the only difference between "eradicating trans people" and "eradicating transgenderism" is that the latter also requires eradication of the mere idea that trans people even exist. That's nazi shit and it's why you support it.
