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!

I have no clue what his goal is. I'm not voting for him, but I support his efforts to undermine the Duopoly.
I've been talking about third parties for years. Thank you! :)
Yeah, Jill Stein for the first month of this account then you made the switch to Rachele Fruit.
Correct. I still respect what the Green Party is trying to do in challenging the Duopoly, but Rachele Fruit and the Socialist Workers Party are a better fit for my values. In fact, I’m in the process of starting a local branch of the Socialist Workers Party in my town! :)
How will you fit in posting to Lemmy every eighteen minutes while doing that?
You have posted 9 comments in the last 18 minutes and almost all your comments are political like his.
There is a way to debate people without rhetoric.
Not defending the poster, but OP is a well known bad faith propagandist. There is no debate to be had here, regardless of how one approaches it.
That's a fair take, I just don't like posting amount being targeted since lemmy needs as much engagement as it can get imo.
Is this one of your eighteen posts that you post every single day? And lately most of them have been about me! I feel so special. Thank you!
If you review my post history you’ll see my submissions cover a range of topics like most real fucking humans do!
Thank you for always thinking about me though, it’s super cute.
And thanks for thinking about me so much, friend! Please update the stats. Thank you!
When I sort by new and it’s mostly your submissions it’s hard to not notice you!
Thanks! And it must be really hard not to engage with me too, cuz you seem to do it every chance you get! :)
Is there a reason why I shouldn’t engage with your content?
Isn’t that the reason you post it, so people engage with it and you can have good faith conversations about it?
I post articles I find interesting. Thank you! :)
You came back as a much nicer person after that break!
I don't know what you mean. Thanks though!
There is no duopoly. Your efforts only undermine the left.
There is a Duopoly. And I'm proud to vote third party.
There's mathematics and statistics. But no duopoly.
Regardless, I'm voting third party. Thanks!
