Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

We have a Traitor in the White House that is using the military like his personal toy. It is sickening.
Don't forget 77 million traitors voted for Trump and his mass deportation campaign.
Trump wouldn't be where he is if people didn't vote for him. I mean, sure Elon helped, but people did still have to go vote.
This is important to remember. His supporters are ALL traitors. This isn't 2016. They weren't bamboozled. They have voted for him THREE TIMES. They are traitors to our nation and everything it's supposed to stand for.
Do not trust them. Do not hire them. Do not help them. In any way.
Yes they did. Truly sickening.
Remember that kid who didn't respect his toys, and always busted them up by driving them down the stairs, and smashing them into each other? He didn't care because he knew his parents would just buy him more. Then he'd come to your house, and you had to tell him that certain toys were off limits because you knew he'd destroy them?
That's HitlerPig and the military. It's just another toy he can abuse until it breaks.
History will absolutely consider Donald Trump an American traitor. A LOT of people just can't see that from within the situation. They'll only be able to see it in hindsight, if at all. It's really sad.
If you lie about an election, you are a traitor.
If you send a mob to stop the certification of an election, you are a traitor.
If you bend the knee to authoritarian leaders, you are a traitor.
If you irreparably damage our alliances by threatening our allies, you are a traitor.
If you steal classified documents and then refuse to give them back, you are a traitor.
If you send the military to threaten/assault American citizens, you are a traitor.
If you spend every day in, and out, of office dividing Americans, you are a traitor.
