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!

Good, since I didn't do anything wrong in the first place. :)
Some people feel you are pushing an article that is clearly designed to manipulate.
So by posting an article, that I didn't write, from a news org I have no association with, I'm "pushing" the article?
Are all the pro-Democrat or pro-Harris articles here also being posted by people who are "pushing" an agenda?
Are you suggesting that news articles that don't represent the majority opinion in this community shouldn't be shared or viewed at all? Do you think certain news should be hidden from the public?
It sounds like you're advocating for limiting choices and restricting access to information. I’d really appreciate some clarification because, to me, it sounds like you're endorsing censorship and would rather this space be an echo chamber.
Yes sharing an article in a public place that is a blatant attempt to manipulate voters does indeed look bad.
Wow, so you really are advocating for limiting choices and restricting access to information. You’re endorsing censorship and would rather this space be an echo chamber.
Glad the mods here don't agree with you!
Do you think that information that is a lie and designed to manipulate voters should be allowed?
Do you think that the Indy Star news org wore information that is a lie and was designed to manipulate voters? Are you accusing them of that?
Because I didn't write the article friend, I posted it. You are the one calling for censorship and not me.
So what part of this news article contained lies? What were the lies?
Do you believe the content of the article to be true?
Yep. Do you have stats to show that it's not? Have you contacted the news org that wrote the article. They would be happy to update it if you have different facts and figures that show their information to be false.
I doubt they would change an article for any reason.
But good luck with your cherries. And good luck getting anything out of Jill. She’s no better than the other parties.
You still haven't shared the facts that you have which shows that the news org is lying. What happened?
Also, I don't have to worry about "getting anything out of Jill" because I'm not voting for her.
I just posted the article friend, I didn't write it. I'm not voting for her. I am not saying people should. I didn't make the news.
