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!

So is there a reason all your news seems to originate from Yahoo and MSN news aggregators? Would expect a committed socialist to eschew such bourgeoisie sources. Perhaps you’d get a more positive reception if you didn’t post such dreck sources?
MSN is a news aggregator. My newsreader pulls articles and gives me a daily list. I read what i find interesting, and post if if I find it interesting.
So I’ll ask again: can you say what specifically you found interesting about this article in particular? i.e. what did you find newsworthy about it.
No thanks. I just post the articles, I don't feel the need to talk about them. Thank you!
So no intent to have genuine good faith engagement? You’re just ding dong ditching and running away - except you stick around and discuss everything other than the articles you share.
I don't have to explain anything. Thanks!
You're actually a broken record. This is like the same chain of comments you left on your posts last night. You sure do like to explain yourself until you end up in this same corner, then suddenly "I don't have to explain anything".
Also, your script for your comments is getting pretty weak. Ending every comment with "Thanks!", "Thank you!", and my (personal) favorite "Thank you! :)" is unfortunately diluting your brand.
I'm free to respond to replies and explain myself when I feel like it, and I'm free to decline to respond to replies and decline to explain myself when I feel like it.
I'm under no obligation to do anything for you.
Thanks, friend! :)
Ooh, that's a new one! "Thanks, friend! :)". I think that might be my new personal favorite. You're keeping us all on our toes by slightly changing your passive aggressive thank yous. No one will ever guess that you're wearing a mask!
It's interesting that you were saying how you weren't going to reply to me, but now you're calling me friend here, and replying to all of my comments anyway. I must really matter to you!
I'm free to choose when and what I wanna respond to. As are you. Thanks, friend! :)
Ah, so you just lied to get me to go away. I understand, lying is what you do best, but that doesn't seem like something a friend would do.
Did we break you? All your comments are starting to end in the same thing.
Thank you! :)
Yes, exactly that! That's what they're all ending in and what I'm talking about!
