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!

Hey look who decided to pretend to give a shit about anything now that the head of her party isn't in office anymore. Gonna dust off your shoes and go find a 20 year old concentration camp to cry outside of again? Mustn't be passive!
Genuinely depressing watching this Pelosi 2.0 completely fail to induce any scrutiny at all from these feckless liberals (you reading this)
Fuck off tankie
Fuck you nazi
Nazis don't know about tankies since ANYTHING left of the overton window is ✨Evil Communism ✨. At worst they're a well informed liberal. In any case you should be well aware that propaganda is a thing. The naivety is thinking it's one-sided or that it need be anything beyond omission.
No connection to rabid anti-communism and nazism at all. No siree. Certainly not the defining trait.
And I'm not against communists, I'm only against tankies! You know. Literally any communist movement that had any measure of success! Have you heard what Radio Free Asia says about them??
By the way I'm immune to the largest most expensive propaganda machine that's ever been created by humankind. But you should check yourself because I think you're being duped by overseas non english speaking sources because you don't have an identical position on these things as Nanci Pelosi, Donald Trump and myself.
