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.

Last week, the US Department of Agriculture announced sweeping plans to increase slaughter line speeds at pork and poultry plants — a move that could further endanger workers who already process animals at a breakneck pace and suffer high levels of injury.

Dear workers and laborers,

Malicious compliance and teamwork are your best friends. When shit-for-brains boss says, "Kill yourself working 14 hours a day making 100,000 things yesterday," work 14 hours a day making 10 things. When ball-gurgling supervisor says, "Only 5 minute breaks or you get a write-up," go take a shit for 30 minutes and use all the toilet paper. When pedo-CEO says, "No money for you," go dust off the ol' guillotine.

I'm going to keep this up because it's borderline. Announcing plans is borderline, I probably wouldn't have posted this yet until they "make moves," "relaxed the laws" or similar. Only posts about what the current administration actually does, not talks about doing or are making plans to do. There are plenty of places for that. You started posting while I was on vacation, so I'm going to give this one a break, plus the others weren't like that.

FYI, I'm pretty strict about this place because of the intent behind it. It's a place for only things about what is actually going on and there should be at least a full paragraph (which you did) that explains the article.

Thanks for understanding.

That's fair enough. For next time I will post about the events that are occurring.

Thank you for informing me.

I appreciate you trying to post. If I see that there are a plethora that I have to remove though, I'm going to make it mod only posts. I'm considering it anyway. I apologize that this isn't really a community community. It's not for everyone. This is nothing personal and I really do appreciate your intentions behind posting.
