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!

Ok. But who doesn't like fried chicken? Like that is not just one group of people.
Same with watermelon. What group doesn't like delicious fruit? Not anybody I wanna be associated with.
I don't like watermelon. (I gave that up in the bargain.)
Do go on...
Edit: seriously, what? You can't leave us hanging
Diabetes
I was hoping a warlock pact.
If I reveal the benefits, I lose them.
Can you tell me the other drawbacks?
I mean the bargain itself just had the cost of liking watermelon. I was warned about more consequences, but none of the usual stuff was part of it. I also can't disclose a bunch of information about the specifics of how the bargain was made, the organization, etc. I don't remember what the Enforcement mechanism was, either. I have a copy of the terms from the organization that helped me establish contact, but I can't really reference the entire thing because about 2 years ago it got covered in McDonald's Big Mac Sauce and it dried before I noticed. It's currently sitting at the bottom of a drawer covered in (iirc) wax paper and several other documents on top of it. I'm 90% sure that the words still exist, and I'm afraid that if I clean the document the words might be damaged and I'm fairly concerned with the potential metaphysical implications. I also don't remember all of the information that I'm prohibited from disclosing, so I won't be going into any further details about that.
That really clears it up pretty succinctly. I understand perfectly. Thank you!
I guess we can't be friends, then. I don't like how watermelon tastes. I do love cutting it up and giving it to my ducks, though
No that counts we're friends
Oh awesome!
I know it's silly on a couple levels, but it made me happy you are happy that we can be friends despite our vast watermelon differences. Please tell your ducks I said hello, friend.
You're lucky they're a duck.
ETA: "Well that's just ducky" would have been better.
But I'm not a duck? If anything I'd be a turkey.
Fried chicken is what stands between me and being a vegetarian.
