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!

None of those tats are neo-nazi affiliated lmao
If you think that the army patch and the slogan "Ne desit virtus" are Nazi affiliated, you're an idiot.
"We the People"? It's in the preamble in the constitution.
And because he has Christian symbols, that makes him a fascist Nazi?
Wow. And you think maga is a cult.
Aw, cute. Pretending that he can hide behind patriotism.
It's all nationalism. All of it. This fucker, his boss, and every single member of this administration are wiping their asses with the constitution, so don't give us this bullshit.
You know which tattoos I'm talking about. You don't get to say "oh, what? The "patriot" tattoos? Let me list them out! The "christian" tattoos? Let's gloss over those!"
He doesn't have a proper cross or a goddamn christian bone in his body. He wears the Jerusalem cross because he loves the crusades because he wants brutal genocidal war with muslims. He literally wrote a book calling for the "American Crusade". That hasn't been fucking Christian since the church collected tithes, crowned kings, and executed scientists.
He is a fascist, and he proudly wears symbols of hatred and violence on his skin.
Edit - btw, pay attention to what people respond to! Hellsfire chooses not to acknowledge anything about Hegseth writing a fucking book called the American Crusade. Just more "context". There's always more "context"
“It’s called the Jerusalem cross. It’s a historic Christian symbol. In fact, interestingly recently I attended briefly the memorial ceremony of former President Jimmy Carter, on the floor of our national cathedral, on the front page of his program was the very same Jerusalem Cross. It is a Christian religious symbol,” Hegseth said.
Yea, definitely a fascist Nazi. This is from an interview posted on PBS.org
Yes, definitely a fascist. Once more for everyone in the back! Yes, it's a real symbol from christian history! Sure, it's inlaid on the floor of a church!
No, Hegseth doesn't wear it because of his faith!
He wears it because he wants brutal genocidal war against muslims... you know, like an "American Crusade". He is a fascist who proudly wears these symbols of hatred and violence on his skin.
What a coincidence! This was also from an interview posted on PBS.org.
