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!

Not on us. For you it's "better" to slaughter children than execute Americans, so you voted for genocide. For us, neither are acceptable so we voted for a third option.
It's on you for refusing to not support genocide and insist on voting for a nonviable candidate.
Because Gaza is so much better off with Kushner in charge of it? https://lemmy.ml/post/42175873
Fuck off.
You're so disgusting.
"I voted for genocide. Are you happy that it's still being genocided?"
You fuck off, and get off your high horse. Your comfort as an American is not more important than all the brown people you don't give a shit about being slaughtered.
There was no option to vote AGAINST genocide
There were, but they majority of the country choose silence and one of two genocide options.
Hell, we could have accepted a democratic candidate, and all you had to do was pressure the party to not put up a candidate that listens to the voters on their most vocal issue, you could have joined the "undecided" movement to let them know you don't accept a republican light candidate...
Instead you shamed us for having a moral compass and screamed at us "do you want Trump instead?" while cheering for Kamala as she thanked Dick Satan Chaney for his service and promised the most lethal military in the world.
You're damn right I did. Only let me correct one thing you didn't have a moral compass, you had a temper tantrum. You are the reason why Alex Pretti is dead, you are the reason Renee Good's children will grow up without their birth mother, The suffering of Minneapolis is entirely your fault, simply because you shit your britches and cried instead of doing your part to make sure Trump couldn't kill again.
