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!

Because I don't clutch pearls over the destruction a piece of a building that was built by slaves and occupied by imperialists and pedophiles, that makes me a "pedophile enabler?"
You're the type of leftist everybody hates, clutch your Pearls as hard as you can, I don't even think you're real I think you're Russian, being paid to troll and manufacture dissent online
You're right. How could it be otherwise? Everyone loves America. A real leftist would watch a child talking about how they've come to fear sunny days because that's when the American drones fly, and would belt out, "I'M PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN, WHERE AT LEAST I KNOW I'M FREE!" It's literally inconceivable that any actual American would look at all the needless deaths caused by everyone who's sat in that building since, well ever, and would experience anything but trauma at seeing part of it torn down.
It's genuinely sickening to me that any of you liberals, clapping like seals when bombs are dropped on innocents because the news says it's ok, thinking of yourselves as "true patriots," and shunning any and all alternate perspectives, abjectly refusing to read any sort of theory - that any of you actually think that you're some kind of "leftists."
