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.

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.

What does it take for people to realize that the pooch is screwed, the frog is cooked, the tomato squashed, the cat's out of the bag and dead in the box? The emperor is naked, and doing a nazi salute, the evidence has been lost in the noise, the law broken, the perpetrators have gotten away with it, the grand wizard revealed behind the curtain, the good guys lose, it's really dark outside, the dragon ate the fucking hobbit AND STILL people are saying "You know this could be not cool" instead of "It's general fucking strike time".
I'll say it. It's general fucking strike time. Let's go!
Any protests we should be organizing everyone we can. Into innumerable groups federated on a general forum of sorts, to organize around what we agree on.
Most people are still too busy shifting the blame from the latest failure of the opposition party. It's everyone else's fault they chose candidates everyone hates that didn't offer popular reform when everyone is pissed and the other guys are one election away from fixing elections forever if they can.
So now it's just if they can, fix the next election, there is a chance in the succession. But due to the shifting of blame so inherent in all of our leaders nowadays, the same ones control the opposition party. Far from repentant they are more arrogant than ever, seeing their reason for being as preventing popular reform from taking hold in the party, the only thing that could unseat the other guys.
One of two people was going to be president when you went into the ballot box in November. If you didn't vote for the one who wasn't going to do all that shit you're crying about now, this is partially your fault.
Do you do anything besides blame democrats for shit republicans do? Didn't you vote third party? So you explicitly voted for maga.
Answer the question of why your opinion isn't to be discounted if you want to discuss things. If you recall I rejected everything you think because your refusal to own up.
