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!

easier ways to dispose of surplus "people" than rigging a barn to explode. At the end of the day, we are just blood balloon waiting to be popped, also I am sure those "people" have families that would would likely be easier targets, all you need to do is mimic their tactics, show up at school, churches, and hospitals, anywhere they feel safe is a good target
There is absolutely no situation where targeting innocents is justified, otherwise you are as vile as the fascists, and your actions will only provide them with justification, and weaken the cause in the eyes of the civilian. You could certainly threaten the fascist with that to gain the upper hand, but civilians should always remain off limits, regardless of how low the fascist goes.
There will always be more than enough legitimate military/political targets who have broken their oath and are "just following orders" from the dictatorship. Don't get lazy or despotic.
only a sith speaks in absolutes, also the previous post before this one was about how Israel has killed somewhere around 500 women and children and mass graved first responders for getting in the way of Israeli bullets, while due process has been paused in the US until further notice the post before that one
Lol, "the fascists murder civilians so it's okay" is not the hill to die on, but keep voicing your true colors!
It always blows my mind how often i completely forget that the Nazis just saw the error of their ways and let everyone they'd imprisoned go. After a nice ice cream social, of course, just to let everyone know how sowwy dey were.
Thanks for reminding me.
E: a word
it would be different if you were one of the people targeted i suppose and you are quite comfortable with them being murdered as long as you keep decorum maintained, that is the hill you are wanting to die on, decorum
Coming in with a Double Dose of his patriotic pimpin' love.
Yeah murder some babies, that will help America.
Don't let your brain turn to mush because you are scared and angry...
that is what the US is funding Israel to do, previous post had the amount of women and children around 500 killed, we do not know if the people the US is disappearing of the street and flying to other countries without due process are alive. I did not advocate for the murder of any babies, just pointing out that this is happening now with just a few of the tactics they are actively using against people they do not like.
Critical thinking is difficult to maintain in the age of social media, dont let yours atrophy especially if you are someone they do not like.
You quite literally did, without using those words. You said go after families
You know what, I'm wasting my time. You know what you did, fuck off troll
no, you just dont like that you're initial comment was immature and not well reasoned. I hope you never have to make the decision of whether you are willing to let your family get disappeared. Or maybe you prefer to be the person says it is better to ignore it to protect that status quo,
