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!

Voters have zero impact on policy and politics, that's a luxury only afforded to the monied class. Your diatribe suggests you believe you have representation in government..
If that were true then it wouldn't hurt you to fucking vote. Unless your real reason is you're the laziest fuck ever.
I never said I dont vote, I just don't vote for fascists
So vote for the Russian asset aimed at aiding trump in any way she can? You were defending not voting all over this thread in any case.
I know reading is really hard for some people, but I said your vote does not matter, its not the same thing as not voting. Anyone who supported a party that thought backing Israel, netanyahu and genocide was more important than defeating the Republican on the ticket, that has lost two elections to that carnival barker needs to sit down and is in no position to discuss how anyone else decided to vote. BlueMAGA is toxic just like MAGA.
Ah yes, the old YoUrE iLlItEraTe BeCauSe I tOtaLlY Am NoT HorRiBle At CoMmuNiCatIoN.
You voted for Trump if you didn't vote against him. Dress it up in a billion words, won't change a goddamned thing.
BlueMAGA
So creative, now if that imagination could lead us somewhere better than Putin's other bitch
