Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

If you have one coming, it's important to set up a local rapid response network. That means:

  • A hotline for locals to call (and distributing the number)
  • Town or neighborhood level signal chats to alert people about what is happening
  • Whistle distribution so that it's possible to rapidly alert immediate neighbors
  • Starting regular patrols to spot ICE before they kidnap anybody

I'd just like to point out how your comment, and mine below, got thirteen downvotes in the space of a single minute from much the same list of coordinated users, while every other comment in the thread has a max of two:

Your comment

My comment

Oh look, and it's the same list of users that upvoted the first comment, also in the space of a single minute:

OPs comment inciting to violence

So for anyone reading this, be aware that the call to violence is not one person's honest opinion but part of an orchestrated campaign using at least thirteen separate Federated accounts to manufacture the appearance of both approval and disapproval that do not exist in reality.

Who wins if you get violent? History has a clear answer: the regime seeking to consolidate its power by any means possible, including manipulation of social media and delegitimization of genuine, peaceful grassroots movements.

You're watching it happen, right here on Lemmy.

As if it were not already apparent, that same list of users is now upvoting my comments, like the one above:

Lemvotes is open for all to see. Upvotes, downvotes, doesn't matter. Me, I don't play that shit. I report it.

Are you commenting to yourself? So adorable. You think you stumbled onto something big don’t you. lol. Not just one pissed off person with coding skills. Although, thanks for helping me debug. Delayed votes, total votes input, random account selection. Good work bud.

[–] ChunkMcHorkle@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It really is, thanks. You lost your temper and let us all see it for ourselves, lol.

It takes much more strength to resist provocation than to give into it out of ego: you are living proof.

[–] whereIsTamara@lemmy.org -3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Temper? Im mad? lol. I mean, I’m mad at the government in general but not like… upset now with you.

I know that you’re a fed simp trying to prevent an uprising of the people. You’re totally fine with what is to come—it won’t be freedom.

So, you—and your alts—can’t talk as smug as you want, but it doesn’t mean I’m wrong, or the bad person 💋

[–] ChunkMcHorkle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

"you . . . can't talk as smug as you want"

"the bad person"

[–] lIlIlIlIlIlIl@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Thank you, it’s so important to shine a light on these deceptive disgusting practices

Keeping in mind the money and motivations is ALWAYS good practice, whenever you read or listen to anything

[–] whereIsTamara@lemmy.org -2 points 1 day ago

[–] sturmblast@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I've noticed this myself

[–] whereIsTamara@lemmy.org -1 points 1 day ago
