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!

I mean, it's an elderly person acting strangely and aggressively, not really remembering it, and even when confronted with video evidence claiming that's not how they act...
They should be straight up asking if she's going to seek medical evaluation as she's showing signs of dementia.
We need to stop handling this shit with kid gloves.
The last people to realize they're experiencing signs of dementia, are the people experiencing signs of dementia.
Maybe they were always horrible people and were just always holding it in. But loosing that ability to hold it in is still a sign of normal age related mental decline.
"Who you are in the dark" is the trope name for how you act when nobody can see or know. Are you actually a good person, or are you only good when you're being observed by people who'd judge you for being your true self. This is literally the same thing as "Santa knows if you've been good" and "God knows what's in your heart."
These kinds of people actually need an invisible, omnipresent judge to keep them from committing atrocities. They're the people who, in a supernatural disaster movie, are the ones who turn to human sacrifice to try and appease whatever horrible thing is rampaging around outside or the alleged god who's doing nothing to stop it.
If she really believed in that omnipresent judge, she wouldn't behave like that
Nah, you're thinking too "Old Testament." Nowadays you can behave as shitty as you want as long as you ~~buy an indulgence~~ "repent" for it.
"I'm not perfect, I'm just forgiven".
Just one of the most nauseating things you will hear a xtian say. And these people will lecture others on matters of morality, claiming you need to be xtian to be moral.
Yeah I actually agree with you
