Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Makes me recall when calling out "Trump's white America" apparently outraged some people in investing forum. Maybe those didn't like their covers blown.

Yeah cause that's what we all want. An unseasoned, mayonnaise salad called America.

I hate these stupid religious conservatives who don't know what critical thinking is. Virus on society.

Christofascism. Fuck the US.

Are they fucking stupid? Do they not realize HOW MANY MINORITIES EXIST?

[–] Auli@lemmy.ca 3 points 17 hours ago

And then it well come down to who is white? And some people won't be the right white and they well go after them.

I pointed this out to some Nazis on Diaspora back in 2016 and their answer was asking how many Jews were in Europe prior to Hitler. They aren't that bright, but their thought leaders do have an understanding of demographics.

They just want to change them, and I don't think that they would rule out extreme amounts of violence to get the demographics they want.

Religious participation is plummeting as the compassionate and reasonable people disassociate from Christianity

The right is splintering, and the Kirk shooter being a neonazi shows this

This sounds like good news but they currently hold power. This is when they lash out the hardest.

Fuck religion.

Maga is Christian in name only. If hell is real, they're all going to hell because nothing they do has anything to do with Christ's teachings.

[–] pataconpisao@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This. They would never dare attend services in non-white churches and would be hostile to newcomers that appear “different” in their own communities. These folks quickly abandon the teachings of Jesus Christ to fight for “racial purity” hands down.

Love how this is the comment they chose not to downvote

Remember when they put out a document that told us that they were going to do this, and exactly how, and people ignored it or called it "propaganda"?
