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!

When you find someone that wants to watch kid rock let me know. I'm not convinced.
Yeah, I dunno. I guess I meant hypothetically?
I liked his first album when it was new. If he was a shithead then, I didn't know about it. Bawitdaba was cool AF back in the day. And Picture with Sheryl Crow is still a great song. Too bad the guy who sings it is a fascist. Just like how Rooftops by Lostprophets was always a banger, despite the singer doing what he did.
If you can separate the art from the shithead... I dunno. I just don't want to hear Kid Rock anymore. I think the last interesting thing he did was mash up Sweet Home Alabama with Werewolves of London and somehow made both worse, but it was interesting.
Boycotting this performance is the ethical thing to do. There are some artists that I don’t listen to anymore, because of their political actions in the last few years. When someone famous I like throws their name, image, and platform behind fascism, I write them off.
Quick clarification edit: Boycotting by never watching, repost or otherwise*
