politics
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!

Edit: oof, check that post history for more.
Seeking negative attention on obscure social media platforms isnt winning, Emmie.
Get help.
You've got to be trolling.
Look at their post history, this is what they do
Yeah, they're trolling. Their bait is just a bit too obvious.
It isn’t my fault that I have to argue with misinformed people every 15 minutes or so
I can assure you that I do rent rooms to immigrants and thus vote for libs because my business depends on the most amount of them flocking to capital
And also I get lowest taxes in this biz like 8% a year when wagies pay 30% or so. It’s comfortable as heck
"You can be a sheep, or a wolf" - Hardcore Emmie
Funny enough, reality isn't usually reduced to two extreme options. Simple thinking like that appeals to simple minds tho.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_dilemma
The notion that we must be sheep or wolves completely ignores the potential to cooperate in order to create value or defend common rights. Without cooperation, economic value could not be created. Yet that's inconvenient when one wants to justify shitty behavior.
Real geniuses refer to websites with cock in the name, not heavily researched and peer reviewed articles with cited sources.
Enjoy breaking the social contract to the point where the sheep end up eating you
Nah, i prefer making jerky myself. Makes it last longer.
Sounds like someone is angry, prolly rentoid
Dear Landleech.
I've downvoted your post. Kindly sell your properties or kill yourself to benefit the greater good of society.
Another landleech proud of fucking over his fellow man. Get Luigi'd.
Fucking over your fellow man would be an argument. I guess you don't need to read to sign a deed.
Kill yourself You fucking dirt bag.
You really need some kind of pills sweetie
Maybe it’s something childhood related. Can you remember what happened in your primary school?
Mao had the right idea about landlords because they all act like you.
I'd use sharp stuff, but otherwise yes
And what does you striking even mean?? You’re a landlord, if you strike nothing really changes
Imagine going online to brag about preying upon people who don't know their rights...what a shitbag
I've seen outright fascist shit on Lemmy but even then this has the highest ratio of downvote to upvote, NO ONE LIKES LANDLORDS
I'm literally crying laughing reading these responses, holy shit people took the bait XD
10/10 trolling, well done you monster
People here really hate landlords. Doesn’t matter if they’re joking or not.
