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!

Recognizing a hopeless situation is exactly what I’m doing. Sometimes there’s nothing that can be done. We had a chance, and a lot of people fucked it up for us all.
The bed isn’t going to sleep in itself.
Ah, so you're spreading their misery and propaganda. Good to know.
LMAO…. look around bud. Your little memes aren’t stopping shit. They’re going to kill people tomorrow, just like they did today and no amount of complaining about it is going to stop it.
So enjoy playing pretend while doing nothing like even else- but at least I’m being honest about it.
You're not being honest.
You're trying to get people to just lie down and accept the fascists as their rulers. You're spreading hopelessness and misery.
At best you've lost hope yourself and see no way out. At worst you're a Nazi MAGAt paedophile sympathiser who delights in suffering and violence perpetrated towards others. Either way, you're actively trying to make the world a worse place.
Considering how vehemently you're arguing the point I think you're a cowardly MAGAt. Trying to get others to lie down and accept the boot upon their face as their reality. To that, I say: fuck off.
I’m not trying to get people to do anything. I’m simply calling it how I see it without all the pomp and nonsense.
No pageantry. This is how it is.
If trump could have been stopped, he would have by now. And if it’s up to the people…. They need to stop sharing memes and yelling at one another online- but we both know that won’t happen.
So here we are.
And since you’ve resorted to ad hominem and personal attacks- you’re blocked.
