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!

"A guy said some dead guy did something he is known for doing, like a lot" has some measure of credibility with the common person on the street.
You must be one of the special ones.
That's just confirmation bias. You assume it's true because it makes sense given other things you know.
If I make up a fact that you are a technology enthusiast, people can assume it's true, you are using Lemmy, it makes sense. And it might be true, but it doesn't change the fact I completely made it up.
It makes it more possible but still proves nothing.
Why, thank you!
You're pretty special yourself! 🌟
Love this community.
Oh wow the passive aggressiveness is palpable. I bet you are the life of the party!
Quite often, yes. I'm very extroverted, and have an exhaustingly large network of friends. I get invited to things by people I'm not that close with because I'm fun and entertaining.
It can be very exhausting if I'm down in the dumps, but generally it's great. I have a lot of people in life that care for me and I give back to them how I can.
