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!

You are so weird.
You three motherfuckers sound almost the exact same, with a few different quirks. American Exceptionalists who constantly try to convince people of supporting this system and this democratic party as is.
I just saw UnderpantsWeevil commenting in this post about the USS Lincoln (https://lemmy.world/post/50817587) pretty much implying that Gavin Newsom is going to be the next president. What the fuck? The difference between him and you and Satan is that he seems to be a little pro-China. Satan hates China. I don't know about you, but, you all overlap hard with the American Exceptionalism, you being some of the oldest active accounts I have seen in Lemmy ever since I joined it after the Reddit API fiasco, and the insane amount of activity all of you have in this platform.
Do you even have a job or how the fuck do you three have so many comments here? And why the hell are you always trying to sway people to be pro-America no matter what? You still want America to be the "world police," to meddle in other countries and whatnot. You are right now telling people that this Hakeem Jeffrey POS "needs to win in November" even after all the evil shit he says and does. Someone just posted a photo of him looking at Netanyahu like a wife, that's the kind of evil corpo bootlicker monster he is.
Why? Why can't you instead tell people that they deserve better than this loser?
I get your angle about not letting any republican in power, but what the fuck is this, man? Are you feds or something??
This mf over here writing novellas in the comment section while complaining about number of comments.
Probably because you publish a sheer volume of comments that rivals a coked up Stephen King's output trying to browbeat people into not believing their eyes and ears when establishment Democratic figures are being as blatant as they can be in demonstrating they are not on the side of the people and will not be coming to help us, but fighting against us when it comes to down to it.
It's fucking exhausting to have every thread be full of you guys going "But see, he said he'd only break one of your arms and legs if he wins, not both of them!" as if that's supposed to make people suddenly say, "You know what, that's great, he's got my vote." when folks simply point out he's said these things and wish that he would commit to not breaking any of our limbs if elected instead. "Ah, but harm reduction! The republicans will break both your arms and legs if they win." Yeah, and assholes like Hakeem Jeffries will be holding you down while they do it to make sure they don't miss while you squirm, thanks a lot.
too long, didn't read
Are you slopping?
Wow, you lack the attention span to read two small paragraphs, so that means anyone functionally literate is must be going and dipping into that AI well, too? Projection skills like that could probably land you a fine job at Imax, buddy.
You're posting a lot of comments. Don't you have a job or something better to do?
Ah, yes, my mighty average of .608 comments per day (including this one), versus your 21.92/day, you've really got me with your brilliant wit there. Go learn to troll better.
