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
MAGA on the far right and Progressives on the far left both trend to this thinking, but the far right are most like to act on it.
The far left that want violence are on the fringe of society, the far right that want violence are in Congress.
The left generally does violence to property. The right does violence to people. I know which one I think is worse.
I agree with that. Putting people in danger is not the way to do it. If you want civil unrest, do it in a manner where lives are not put at risk.
You guys are fuckin morons
Ah yea, because those in power totally listen to us plebs when we politely ask them if we can also have a decent life.
I think you're exactly right. The far right has many more people who support violence and their politicians are almost guaranteed to defend them.
The left was burning down whole city blocks during the summer of love but reddit must have censored that for you.
And the right tried to overthrow the country. Which matters more? Democracy or a foot locker?
Oh no! The economy! Nothing should ever prevent our oligarch overlords from massive profits!
Go back to Reddit Bernie bitch
Go back to 4chan, fascist lover.
Enjoy learning which way lemmy leans.
lol no u
Who will pay for ur food stamps if the economy doesn’t keep on chugging?
Not you, loser
Please show us on the strawman where antifa touched you
People that witnessed an execution in the streets, by a government official, rioted. It should have been a universal anger among all citizens, especially the ones that constantly claim to be against government overreach.
