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!

I can confirm. Precisely a week before the debate, I got a lock of Trump's hair in the mail and a letter from Kamala that said "you know what to do"

You're all welcome

Damn, I can’t wait for her to shut down autocrats and strongmen with "occult-empowered deception".

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

I wish she was that cool

It's true, I saw her give him the evil eye during the debate. Now he's cursed with ineloquence until he makes a pilgrimage to his fatherland and burns a wreath of holly under the full moon.

They are really running out of real arguments.

On the other hand, this is one of the more creative explanation of Trumps utter f-up. What's next? Were the aliens providing Trump with mental energy having reactor trouble in their UFOs?

"Newsweek has contacted Harris's campaign via email for comment."

That’s so rad. Love me some witches! 🧙

[–] solomon42069@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

This would be funny if it weren't incredibly sad how many supposedly grown adults still fear words like "witchcraft" and "satanic".

Those fingers in my hair

That sly come hither stare

That strips my conscience bare

It's witchcraft

[–] Hegar@fedia.io 5 points 2 months ago

I will always hear that in Bart's voice.

[–] rustydomino@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

“She’s a witch!”

“Yeah, but she’s OUR witch.”

Honestly, as a cope, I find this infinitely INFINITELY more satisfying than the "3 on 1 debate" weak sauce.

[–] WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

As a Thelemite, I approve these tactics.

[–] Bonesince1997@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

That's funny because a few times I spied her hands, held out in front of her, fingers outstretched, looking like she was casting a spell! Lol. Nevertheless, they were all thoughts for funsies only.
