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!

Wow, these extremists are getting really good at talking out of both sides of their mouths.
And yet, in one of the recent Rolling Stone pieces about Alito, he was caught on tape essentially saying seculars and religious nuts can’t live in peace, one side has to win out.
So it’s okay for different sects of Christians who disagree on a lot to band together to fight against secularism, but god forbid the same grace is extended to seculars to live in peace with Christian nuts (puns intended).
As a Jewish atheist, I’m flabbergasted. I’m clearly not welcome here according to any of these assholes.
Proving once again that the end goal of conservatives is genocide. They simply can't fathom coexisting with people who don't think and look exactly like them, and given enough power they will start the mass-scale murder of "the enemy".
This is also why they're convinced genocide is what "liberals" want to do to them; they can't understand peaceful coexistence without wanting to murder the Other so they assume everybody else is like this as well
Well said. Fat lot of good the “Never again” mantra did…
It was only a matter of enough time passing from the horrors of WW II and the Holocaust. We'll likely have to live through unspeakable atrocities again before things can get any better, and with current technology being what it is I'm not sure we'll make it to "the other side" of those atrocities.
Well I think the only way to defeat fascism in America is with redacted, we will need to rise up redacted... well what needs to be done to defeat these conservatives can't be said outloud.
Yeah, it really is starting to look like an "us or them" scenario what with the rise of the extreme right everywhere.
Unfortunately, considering that conservatives are more likely to be psychopaths and sadists, it'll probably be "us"…
Us Jewish atheists are only useful if we die in Israel, either in furtherance of a genocide or better their heavy metal themed apocalypse.
….Chuckles nervously…..
True that.
