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!

Seems like they're intentionally maximizing the suffering of women and children.
Yes, that's been their platform for decades. The cruelty is the point
They don’t actually give a fuck about cruelty imo because they don’t see worker drones as people. Ensuring the working class is on the edge of crisis is the point. They want people to be hardly making it, but enough to keep going, so they’ll work endlessly and accept crappy conditions. They want people to be deluded by propaganda and not have the energy or time to seek political change. Making money and retaining power is the point.
That's the viewpoint of the elites running the party. For the average rube, they want to see the "right people" suffer.
Ecomonic Advisor: Charles Dickens.
Dickens gave the capitalist scathing criticism, so maybe one of his villains such as Scrooge.
The capitalists have already adopted much from their utopian (sic) novels, 1984 and Brave New World, and soon will realize the economic utopia depicted in Dickens' work.
That's because you're thinking about it wrong. Here try this: say "Jesus!" Good- now wave your hands way above your head like you're waving to a cloud with both hands.
There ya go. See? It all makes perfect, rational, logical sense. vote Trump. Then shut up.
Next!
Isn't society miserable? It's because you don't work hard enough. Also government doesn't work. Can't you see how we didn't send you food? It's the government's fault so we need to get rid of the government. Both sides! But first vote for us so we can remove the government regulations that are stopping us from destroying the government
Also it's a trans kid's fault.
THE trans kid.
Started a weird group about eggs with a bunch of normal kids
The next step is to turn both thumbs down and frown while saying socialism.
