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!

It makes no difference if trump supported a tiny fraction or none. That doesn't change the point. I have nonintention of leaving the platform so you can have an even denser echo chamber and feel even more like you are always right about everything. It is good to occasionally have a voice that isn't just singing the same robotic song over and over.

Liars are adding nothing of value to the discussion

[–] AIhasUse@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, you're absolutely correct. That's why I advocate for honest discourse, even if it means making your preferred party look how they actually are. This whole thing where both sides feel justified in lying because the other side does it is absurd.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You advocate for trump and trump alone and that prick has never intentionally told the truth in his life.

[–] AIhasUse@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Look through my comments. I've called him a lying, stealing, rapist pedo who I detest and I would never consider voting for. Your preconceived notions are falling flat very rapidly.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Lol The only reason I'm still interested in calling your bullshit is that you keep providing evidence that you're a fucking LIAR

[–] AIhasUse@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You said I'm a fan of trump, I pointed out that this is verifiably false, so you resorted to using all caps to try to prove you must be right.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

The implication being that if I'm right, you obviously would be seen directly praising trump. lol

You're mentally lazy af
