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!

In my area farms and branches that employ teenagers make sure to give them the easiest work. The reason being kids are vindictive little shits who will hold onto a grudge and only enact on it when you are at serious risk of mutilation or death, sure they could pull the emergency cord on the wood chipper or they can turn the other way and pretend to hear nothing. So teenagers do sales or porter work nothing strenuous.
Also if my example seems weirdly specific that's because it's based off an incident in the 90s that is passed around as a cultural reinforcement of why you don't piss off young workers. Not to say adults won't also fuck you over but usually they have more autonomy allowing them to get it out of their system, more property damage less watching you die a pitiful death.
In their fantasy, it’s not teenagers. Think more 12 and under. This was reality believe it or not, less than 100 yeas ago.
Not saying they want teenagers, moreso pointing out that if teenagers can let nature takes its course on you then literal children would do it without hesitation. Children will literally watch a building burn in fascinated calmness before thinking to call 911 would anyone want to work around that. Not the kids fault they're kids their brains aren't fully formed that means they can be socially questionable little psychos.
