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!

It's a public holiday here, I'll sleep when I'm tired.
Look, I've said everything I'm going to say, I've tried to change your mind on this, but I don't know if that's even possible at this point. I sincerely hope that your decision (and the other user posting similar replies) to abstain from voting does *not *result in Trump winning the election, but the polls are putting them so god damn close right now, that it may very well come down to a handful of votes in some of the states. Bernie is out there trying to make a positive difference, and you're basically giving him the middle finger and saying "no, I'm happy for Trump to win, and I'm happy for the situation to get worse, because my consience won't let me vote for the status quo".
I think that's such a cowardly move.
Fuck off. The yanks have been sponsoring fascists for ages. They can get a taste of their medecine lmao. You hypocritical ass is only bothered when it's white people suffering. Palestinians can die, you dont give a shit.
Reported. I'm not going to reply to abuse.
Oooh nooooo the truth. Fuck off. Reports all the posts calling people "dumb" while you're at it you one-sided cunt.
Reported. I'm not going to respond to this continued abuse, nor will I be responding to your other posts, not because you've caught me in a 'gottcha' moment, or because I'm afraid of what you're say, I'm simply not going to lower myself to personal attacks and childish insults. If you want to behave like an adult, and discuss the issues, then do so.
The average yank (or yank-adjacent, you're just a brit colony too, dont flatter yourself) is saying behaving like an adult means voting for genocider.
You can shove your adultness into your butthole. Civility is a tool of the oppressor.
