politics
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!

Wait, I thought Lemmy thought the US sucked and everyone wanted to leave because it's a doomed fascist country now? But now you all are mad because people wanna stay and you wanna fight for them to stay here?
But wait, people who love the US are fascists, remember? Come on guys, you all are forgetting what you all are mad about.
If we are so terrible like Lemmy says the US is, then why are people still coming here or trying to stay here? I thought the US was evil and horrible and should be wiped out. What changed? You all digging the US now? Gonna stop telling people to leave and get out? Or what? Pick one!
Before you cry and say "nazi!" I actually love the US and think people should be allowed to stay. But Lemmy's mixed messaging sucks! You all are just doomscrollers that want to be mad. I don't give a shit who is president, I think you all would find shit to be mad about. When the next Dem wins, I am gonna fucking go to every one of you who will still be bitching about everything and say, "Told ya so!" lol
You write like a third grader
Thank you. I was really worried I was gonna come off as a 2nd grader, but I made it to third grade! Yesssss!!!!!! Winning!
Try reading a book sometime.
Ok, sure. I mean, I get it. I have an opinion that goes against most Lemmy groupthink. So obviously I am uneducated and must read a book. Thanks for that advice.
Brother, I can read any book you want, but I stand by what I said. No matter how mad you get about it.
You clearly do not.
