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!

Finally, some sources I can check. That's all you need to do to prove me wrong, given that it does show what you claimed.
Edit: Unfortunately, the first link only shows a few people outside an ICE facility where one of them is being attacked. These guys are doing good, but where are the rest of the community? This just seems to confirm my fears, that the efforts from the ones fighting are not being echoed by their community.
Do you guys really have no independent media that are reporting on the stuff you're saying is happening like the protests in the second link? Are these stuffs even being reported here on the Fediverse? If so, where can I find them?
Majority doesn't equal all, so why aren't you showing the ones not corporate captured? Your overuse of calling me useless is really proving to be simple projection at this point.
Not only do i think you are tool of propoganda, now i think you are controlled opposition.
Sure man, it's me, a non-American concerned about where America is headed, who is the controlled opposition, and not the one trying to make enemies of people who aren't on the side of your actual enemy. You don't sound like a person actually serious about fighting the enemy now. Sounds like your main objective is to sow discord amongst the people who are against trump.
Yeah, me telling you about the media embargo on protests which is specifically designed to make Americans doubt the effectiveness and number of protests is sowing discord.
Not the tool that has weaponized incompetence in the face of that propoganda. Sounds right to me tool 😀. Must be my TDS?
Asking you for sources that aren't part of that embargo given that not all American media is corporate owned is sowing discord now? I think what you're doing by claiming there are protests everywhere but not having any source to produce is trying to make Americans think the situation is not as bad as it might be so that they get complacent and not fight back. You literally sound like you're part of a psyop. The fact that you can't stop insulting me just makes me think you're very desparate to distract people from finding out.
I just think you're kinda dumb. The American situation is terrible, which is why Americans are protesting, which is having an effect at every level it happens, which is why discussing it in American media is embargoed. It'll keep escalating regardless until it's impossible to ignore, but at that point people will be burning things down. That'll be around election time when voting is predictably compromised by the fascist regime.
We're just arguing past eachother because you are a tool.
You people have plenty of independent media that aren't corporate owned and part of the embargo. What is it that is so hard for you to understand that if none of the protests you mentioned is enough to gain the attention of your independent media, that means the movement is hopelessly small and require some ass kicking to get into gear instead of the coddling you're trying to do now? I think YOU'RE very dumb because you don't seem to realise that when it's too late, there is no turning back until some actual bloody revolution is performed, and that requires even more sacrifice than what you're unwilling to do even now.
Lmao the old i know you are but what am I. We're down to middle school debate because I'm arguin with a literal and figurative tool.
Not really, because I haven't relied on insulting you constantly to make my point, yet.
"...yet." he said ominously as he puts on his joker makeup.
Your comments are getting more irrelevant now.
