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!

You can't read. If you have a suggestion as to how I can do my part to fix this, I'll not only listen, I'll do it.
Ah, so you're upset that others won't tell you how to fix your problems? Vastly different, yes
You're being asinine. I bet you would tell the people in Gaza and Palestine to solve their own problems too.
Are you even from the US? If so, what are you doing other than being bothersome online?? Because it seems like you're a Russian troll.
25% to 30% of social media is astroturf, according to studies I've heard. Maybe not a Russian troll, but certainly paid for by fascists. Don't let them bother you. They hate their lives sitting in their tiny cubicle telling lies for a meager wage.
Thank you, friendly ally.
"Certainly paid for by fascists", lol.
How dare I say that Americans should fix their own fucking problems instead of whining about how everybody is being mean and not telling them how to fix them
Certainly a Russian troll for suggesting you Americans get your own shit together instead of whining that the rest of the world won't tell you how to fix things.
Because Gaza and Palestine are definitely the same as the US. Excellent analogy, only something an American could have come up with – Israel committing genocide in Gaza is the same as Americans voting for fascists
I wonder, do you think you're providing value here?
I don't think you're paid-for, because I'm convinced of your self-righteousness. Your condescension is too natural to be fake.
But let me ask you: does whining about people whining make you better than them, or worse? What's your goal?
