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!

You're in a cult, get educated, snap out of it
Nah, they're just a downvote troll. Look at their history. Account created yesterday and already at -522 comment karma. This is why reddit ended up capping downvotes at -100 because idiots like that person used to love to make a game out of seeing who could get the most downvotes.
Never really looked at it from that angle, almost seems a decent argument for removing visible downvotes all together. Should I not be as pissed at YT as I think I should be?
Instead, hiding the downvotes makes troll comments look reasonable and even popular as they brigade a community to upvote their narrative. The average user has no way to combat or discourage it.
just a bunch of stupid fucking trolls, aren't you.. idiot children..
The PCM Nazis made their way to the fediverse.
Bruh, even 2016 wasn't a fucking landslide - he outright lost the popular vote, only getting in thanks to the electoral college.
RemindMe - 13 months. :)
I'm not going to say Trump has NO path to victory, he does, but it won't be a landslide. There are also a growing number of paths that would take him out of the race before the election even happens.
Edit Pretending Trump has no path is partly how he won in 2016. No vote can be taken for granted.
Imagine being such a sycophantic cuck that you are willing to publicly argue that some fuck, who wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire on the side of the road, is going to win in a landslide after already losing the popular vote twice.
Especially on a post where that same dumbshit just told the rest of your cult members not to vote, and you all hang on his every word like it's water in the fucking desert. I'd say this was a joke, but there ain't nothing funny about it.
I'm sure you thought whatever that is supposed to mean was very clever.
It's really funny. All those power phrases and one-upmanship games played by Trumpetts are like people who roll coal or drive loud muscle cars - people waving around their tiny-dick-insecurity energy for everyone to see, somehow convinced they're hiding anything.
Or all those conservatives obsessed with which consenting adult another consenting adult is sleeping with. Though there I'm pretty sure it's just repressed jealousy because I can't imagine giving that much of a fuck about an issue that I wasn't deeply personally invested in.
Oh do tell us more.
Why are we enabling and feeding trolls?
When I looked at this, there were 132 downvotes, why was it even still visible?
This isn't reddit, where the interface hides comments with too many downvotes.
Being unpopular doesn't go against the rules.
Apparently, neither does posting comments intended to provoke angry or indignant responses.
I feel like there's a word for that.
They said that in 2020, too. It was bullshit then, and it’s bullshit now.
