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 pretty fucking clear the only difference between the dems and republicans is the stickers they put on the hellfire missiles they use to bomb children's hospitals in the middle east.
Hello Kitty or hot rod flames.
We still running this dogshit "both sides the same" line after this whole clown show of a year with gestapo murdering people on the streets? Dumbass
Both sides are evil and self-serving.
The entire purpose of the democrat party is to make sure nobody gets elected that will raise taxes on the ruling class.
Wow, what a detailed and nuanced analysis. That blanket statement sure looks big and warm.
My hope for the Democratic party died last year. I was a "vote blue no matter who" believe it or not. That was until I realized they couldn't give two shits about the very horrors you describe. So no, this time it's different.
Image what they could do if they just fucking stood their ground or matched their energy.
Only a dumbass would think the dems need some more votes to start taking action. It's fucking pathetic. Why are you not demanding more from our elected officials? They known they don't need to earn your vote.
What they could do? When the country gave republitards full control of all branches of government? lol go ahead and describe what "matching their energy" looks like in that situation. You know which two sides are the same? The clowns who voted for Trump and the clowns who didn't bother voting for Kamala, both equal contributors to the current clown show. Because falling for Qanon conspiracies or "Killer Kamala" memes is just the same retardation in my book.
Oh I voted for Kamala. Every single Republican involved in this shit needs to be handcuffed and sentenced to life in prison for high treason. Anything less is just support for these fuckheads. Sorry you had to find out you're a fascist traitor this way.
Not sure how you extracted me being a "fascist" from your illiterate schizo mind but okay.
I voted democratic too, but also work to get electable candidates that meet the moment. Your attitude is passing the buck for controlled opposition designed to fail. What is the definition of stupid? Doing the same thing and expecting different results? Grow a fucking spine.
