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!

It's time to dismantle the Democrat party.
Shouldn't it be primary season for the mid terms now? Are there any left, or at least progressive, candidates running anywhere?
It's going to start any minute, at least in terms of ads and stunts and attention-seeking social media things. But as we get closer to mid-year we'll see a lot more chaos and carnival stunts, culminating in November when it will be full on "raw dogging a warp jump with no navigator" level of chaos and bullshit to wade through every day.
I don't know who's running, but I know how i'm voting. With a few exceptions, all incumbents must go. Every last rotten piece of ancient, withering meat who hasn't made any attempt at reform or pushback is out on my ballot, and this should be our goddamn ANTHEM.
If you’re in the US, look for DSA candidates in your area.

Republicans one-party state FTW?
They didn't mention the 2nd part:
Dismantle the Democrats. Liquidate the Republicans.
That's a tremendous omission.
Big think: the people wouldn't just vanish. The parties are their people. After we dismantle & liquidate them, wouldn't the same parties reemerge? Something crucial seems missing.
