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
People are downvoting this story because they don't want to hear the reality. And ignoring that reality only makes things worse.
This is how you get Trump 2.0.
So face the truth, or be prepared for Donald to destroy American democracy.
Democrats have been alienating regular white working-class folks for years now. They love to be race baited on issues and almost without fail, have had a pro-Black stance on far too many issues as if Black's are the only ones hurting these days. Concentrate on economic class, instead of race. Or else you will be dividing the country more than unifing it. A black coal miner in Appalachia is no better or no worse off than his white coal mining neighbor, and yet the left and many centrists are fine with bullshit race-based programs instead of ones that eliminate race from the discussion altogether and simply look at need.
This story is also tied in with other recent news on how young white males are joining right wing groups at alarming rates. This is a very real problem that should scare people enough to reevaluate some of the policies thag are creating this problem. You can't continue to use white males as all of society's and constantly oush them away ans think there won't be a blowback from that.
