Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

“He’s doing a good job,” Trump saidabout the Israeli leader. “Biden is trying to hold him back, just so you understand, Biden is more superior to the VP. He’s trying to hold him back, and he probably should be doing the opposite, actually. I’m glad that Netanyahu decided to do what he had to do, but it’s moving along pretty good.”

For the umpteenth time, I'm voting for Harris.

You just want everyone to shut up and pretend to be as happy as you are about genocide.

Umpteenth time? Do I know you? Until the last 15-20 mins when I tagged your username, I had never seen you in my life before this exchange. Or maybe you remember me from one of your alt accounts and got confused?

Umpteenth time?

Yup. Umpteenth. None of you pro-genocide centrists (and there will never be another kind of centrist) can understand that it's possible to vote for Harris and still not absolutely love it every last time Netanyahu murders a Palestinian infant for you guys. So whenever someone says that maybe we shouldn't be enabling the genocide all centrists dearly love, one of you unoriginal genocide supporters is like "buh whubbut trump! He'd be worse! You support trump! Russian Chinese bot!"

So I have to clarify over and over and over that I'm voting for Harris. Hence, umpteenth. Not like it matters. None of you have anything approaching reading comprehension. You see opposition to your precious genocide and decide without so much as a first thought that anyone who doesn't worship Netanyahu-sama must be a trumper.

Do I know you?

No. That's why you called me a trumpist.

Or maybe you remember me from one of your alt accounts and got confused?

I have no alt accounts. But hey, if anyone disagrees in the slightest with you, the only possible explanation is that there's a conspiracy.
