Politics
For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.
Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only
▪️ Title must match the article headline
▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)
▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.
Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.
Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.
Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7. No conjecture type posts (this could, might, may, etc.). Only factual. If the headline is wrong, clarify within the body.

I don't know if threatening all our homelands is a great idea. I was raised by rangers, grew up scouting, lived in National Forests for a very formative chunk of my life. Sure, we all grew up in a bubble. We're not French. But, we're not going to just not resist. I keep picturing a mama bear defending her cubs, like in The Revenant. This is a vindictive order from the same guy that dodged serving in Vietnam, where he could have learned lessons about attacking people on their home turf in an unpopular war. The one saving grace is these lands are truly so magnificent and vast, most people will never be able to detect the intended atrocities. But I will. I'm supposed to be mountain biking in National Forests right now and am only delaying due to mechanical problems. All of us who actually restore these trails and spend time in these wildernesses will.
The damage to commercial interests is the thing he's really not calculating. Tourism, skiing, etc. will not be happy with this sabotage.
