"Maybe if we just rename ourselves to Meta, people will forget all of the horrible things we did"
This literally changes nothing.

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!

Remember, everyone, if you see him in public it is your civic duty to punch him in the dick.
Bovine out to pasture
Belongs in dog food cans though
Ones I'd throw out rather than letting poison any dog
short end of the stick for Shorty??

His Illegal activities will still put him in prison when the clown is gone. Hope he knows that.
If we couldn't put the clown who hired him in prison under four years of a democratic president then what makes you think we can do it to this guy?
I'm not sure what the solution is. If we hang people for treason, who will stop the next regime from hanging anyone they like for "treason". ?
Hmm, yeah, I see your point. Should probably just let them murder citizens in the street then. 🙄
The solution is that if we hang ALL of them, we won't have to worry about them coming back around to form another regime. The main issue the US has had is we don't punish seditious mother fuckers and/or Nazis at all and then they keep trying to take over the country. It happened after the civil war, it happened after WW2, and it happened again after the January 6 insurrection attempt. We let these people off with a slap on the wrist and then they come right back and shoot innocent people in the street. Hanged people don't come back and shoot innocent folks in the street. That's just a fact.
