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'll never see you breathe a word of unprompted criticism for the biden administration or for netanyahu and his genocide. Ever.
Bullshit. Anything that wasn't vociferous support for the bidenyahu genocide was helping trump, according to people who were fine with trump winning as long as it meant their precious genocide continued unabated.
I blame people who sell weapons for genocide for selling weapons for genocide.
I blame all netanyahu's simps in the US. Not just biden and harris. But when it comes right down to it, their administration actively assisted an ongoing genocide by providing it with arms, all the while claiming that they were working on a ceasefire that it's clear that neither they nor any of their supporters, especially you, wanted.
If their stance was politically expedient, they might have won. They made an unpopular stand for centrists' only policy and you ate it up because you love the results. Lots of dead Palestinians and you don't have to fight for anything for at least four years. And you get a shaky justification for blaming anyone who dared to be upset at your genocide.
I criticized democrats when their support for your genocide came up. On a fledgling platform full of centrists who oppose progressives but not genocide. Who is it do you think I forced into the idiotic belief that republicans were better? The only people pretending that was a thing are people who don't want their genocide to end until completion, regardless of which party completes it for them.
Yes, the party using its power and influence to support genocide and hold back anything you lie about wanting pales in comparison to one gadfly on a platform full of centrists that only get upset when someone tells them that genocide isn't the greatest thing ever.
Condescension is how centrists react when someone wants to hold them accountable for their unwavering support for genocide and only genocide.
