Politics Unfiltered
This community shares news and articles from a wide range of political perspectives—socialist, liberal, conservative, independent, libertarian, Green Party, Pirate Party, and more.
The goal isn’t to push one side but to give people a fuller picture of what's going on in the world.
You’ll find everything from mainstream coverage to underground analysis, letting you compare narratives, spot bias, and dig deeper into the facts.
It’s a place for curious thinkers, not echo chambers. Whether you lean left, right, or somewhere off the map entirely, the idea is to expose yourself to other viewpoints and sharpen your own thinking.
Civil discussion is encouraged, and the focus stays on good information and mutual respect—not name-calling or tribal politics.

I think there are many reasons to see this time as different. Trump is immune from prosecution, and is already trying to do many things that are seen as illegal by many states.
Project 2025 is a solid plan that if successful, could set our countries course for a while. He has already made healthcare harder for any Trans folks especially by trying to make it much harder to say you are trans on official documents. (Though it is funny that everyone in the country was legally female for a bit.)
Also the pardoning of violent criminals? Its a strange time. It is reasonable for folks to find worry in this.
Folks that know Palestinians. Devastated. Just because those folks don't see the world like you do doesn't mean they are unreasonable. Your worldview isn't perfect. They aren't necessarily safe. They would likely have been safer with Kamala. Even if you don't belive in their cause.
I don't think their fear is funny. I think there are many ways a reasonable person could be upset.
Dude, drop it. The world is not gonna end because someone doesn't get to use different pronouns in a work email. I don't care. lol
I see, no worries homie. We can't be critical everyday.
You don't gotta keep responding.
Work email pronouns had nothing to do with what I said, so you still haven't convinced me of anything. If you don't strongman my argument we'll talk in circles.
You are ignoring actual harm to people and laughing about it. I'm not here to judge that. You got here and believe what you do, and I respect your journey. Though I will say you are currently looking quite rude.
And you haven't convinced me of anything. I feel the way I feel. And you feel the way you feel.
I told you I don't laugh at actual harm. I laugh at the imaginary harm that many Lemmys thing are real.
It's totally ok that we have different viewpoints, friend!
Do you feel like you've actually engaged in this? I don't know. You're allowed to think differently, but you don't ever back yourself up. Why disagree if you are going to make your points look so lame in the eyes of Lemmies? You don't want to convince anyone? I feel you are doing a disservice to your ideology.
Conservatism has real points in it. You make me feel like there are none.
I am under no obligation to back anything up. This is a forum on Lemmy. It's not some political debate club at Harvard university or some think-tank commercial feature for PBS.
I don't care if the points I make look lame to Lemmy. I don't care if I look lame to Lemmy.
Why are you taking this so seriously? It's Lemmy. LMAO
Ah I just like to argue. I thought you may say something interesting. You seem to operate in a strange one foot in one foot out kinda way. Like you definitely want to be here. It means a lot to you to be here. But that meaning doesn't come from changing minds. You are content to post about a world we don't see and give no evidence for it.
Idk, I just wouldn't do that so I'm curious on why you do.
Trust me, this rarely happens when I speak. Both on Lemmy and in real life.
It's cool, but it doesn't "mean" anything to me at all. I've been banned. Had comments removed. Meh, It's Lemmy. I'll just keep on posting stuff I think is interesting. I don't care what people think too much.
Thanks, friend!
Good luck out there homie.
Thanks, friend!
