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!

MODERATORS
Everything you're saying here is completely wrong, couldn't possibly be more wrong. Removed for misinformation and temp banned.
Trolling? Misinformed? Don't care. Use the time to get some fresh air.
You say all that as if the modlogs themselves don't clarify, with "oops" being written as the registered reason for the temp-ban, that someone in charge had made a mistake (which you're claiming credit for as an intended move on your behalf), or that the very thing we're discussing didn't have to be blown out of the water by the very person we speak of, especially as a certain point I made (going back to the same replies of mine about the supposed tearfulness) has been proven, as it's been proven to be a trend everyone else in his camp (who, as experienced politicians, namely ones in the Democratic league, you'd think would just recognize this a part of the process) has been using, which everyone else just wants to be relieved of and look back on with spirits as I've been optimistic enough to do for these three days and are growingly fed up with as a far more maladaptive variation threatens to make it hard for people with more genuine issues to be taken seriously. For such reasons, with the horse's mouth as a source, without breaking the rule of unnecessary downvoting as others are able to get away regarding you as they have to me as a demonstration of its enforcement, would one think it's out of place that I call double standard regarding the four things I describe just now?
The "oops" was an accidental un-ban, had to re-ban.
The mod buttons are damnably close together on mobile.
Same for "Remove Post" and "Feature in Community"
Or "Ban user" and "Make Mod".
The modlog, at least when I look at it, only has me banned once.
Anywho, what about the other things.
The other things show you learned nothing from your temporary timeout. Removed permanently.

I'm not judging, but having read all that, and having seen you banned from a pair of other places where you have been seen as spilling other misinformation, what exactly would you say is the line where information stops and punishable misinformation begins?
