Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Biden doesn't care about wet people

Both are ridiculous and have ZERO plausibility.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yes, both are ridiculous. But setting a fire is a lot more plausible than stopping a hurricane.

[–] Grant_M 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's NOT plausible to suggest my PM is setting fires.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

Yes, of course, in reality it is not plausible that the prime minister of Canada is purposely setting wildfires. However, it is more plausible that Trudeau could physically set a fire than Biden could stop a hurricane. That's the only point I was making.

You think the prime minister sneaking off in the middle of the night to commit arson is in any way plausible? Give me a break

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I didn't say that he did. I said that it's possible for a person, which Trudeau is a person, to set fires. It's not possible for any person to stop a hurricane.

Okay thanks for giving insane Nazi conspiracy theories what they really need - more time in the sun. You’re doing good work! Fucking dipshit. Perfect username, though.

You must have plenty of muffins

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Imagine “lolumad”ing someone because they object to someone defending nazi conspiracy theories! Good job, shit for brains, you’ve chosen great company - Nazis and people too stupid to realize they’re stanning for them. Good choice!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nah, I'm just calling you out for being a Dick.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

To someone helping out Nazis. Good job!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Man your muffin bill must be outrageous

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If anyone is going to actually think Trudeau is personally setting fires, they don't need me to back them up. And I've been very careful to say that its plausible when compared to stopping a hurricane. You're just trolling now...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

You literally have a bone for a brain

Out of curiosity - if you aren’t out here blithely supporting nazi conspiracies on purpose, what are you doing? Simply being a pedantic jackass? Good job!!!!!
