News
Welcome to the News community!
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.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
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. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
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. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

It's a conclusion I've drawn from decades of behavior. No, it's not even remotely easy because the people who would crawl over used heroin needles to drink the bilge water from manchin's houseboat keep gaslighting and employing other methods of abuse against those who disagree with them from the left. There is no one who disagrees with them to the right.
From a functional standpoint, there is no democratic party.
Everyone has decades of experience with human behavior. Yours is no more valuable than anyone else's, so it's not a valid support of your argument.
Your opinion is easy because it's simple and convenient. For people facing harder realities, their opinions will vary, and that's ok. Those opinions are valid.
Peace and blessings.
There is no argument that supports any criticism of democrats as far as you're concerned.
Sometimes, things are simple.
"If you have a different opinion from my unconditional worship of the democratic party, it's because you have it easy, not because your experience is valid."
I never said your experience was invalid. I'm sorry but whoever trained you in rhetoric missed the mark completely. I'd ask for a refund, assuming you paid for it.
Sure you didn't. Just that mine's not worth anything and those of people whose opinions match your own are valid.
I'm sorry centrists think "gaslighting" and "debate" are synonyms.
