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!

Well for one, I don't live in a country that has a decades long history of pretending to be a democracy whereas in reality it was just all about protecting rich racist pedophiles
For two: the USA has been bragging on every shape or form possible about ho they would protect the world, how they would have the lone hero who would stand up and sacrifice everything for the good, and do the right thing
Now that we need that American gung ho spirit, the world is waiting and.... Crickets....
So take all of those Hollywood movies from since the 50's about the American hero who saves the day and dump it in the garbage because it was all lies, all bullshit, because real Americans just keep on "well but if Indo that I may lose muh joobbbb" when asked to do something as simple as protest.
Nobody has asked to bring down your government yet (well, fair, many have, but I doubt many expect that to happen), nobody has asked you to assassinate politicians, just FUCKING PROTEST already, and fuck your pussy ass no kings protests that did less than diddly squad. That was not a protest, that was just a procession to feed ducks
For fucks sake, Americans, your country is invaded, where are your fucking heroes? You know, the ones being advertised for decades on end? I'm not seeing any of them
Liberalism, baby. Institutions deal with problems, not people.
