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!

“But how dare the lyin’ media fact check muh orange Jesus? This is so not fare to muh fragile ego”

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

You mean the guy who both said fact checking during a debate is unfair and then at the same time said that media companies have an obligation to fact check, is lying?!

Jesus Christ, it’s not on you, but what an awful show. Nobody let that woman ask for evidence even though it was a good question that she tried to ask multiple times. I’m secondhand frustrated now

These guys are just like my ex.

They will accuse you of everything wrong with them. Fucking wild

Yep nice but of classic projection.

Mine keeps telling me, angrily, how angry I am. Yet I want absolutely zero to do with her and avoid her at all cost.

I hope not. She had major unresolved daddy issues. It was the total opposite of wife material.

It's always projection. They pre-empt criticism by taking whatever words are (rightly) being directed at them or could be used against them in the future and just flipping them around, making them lose their original meaning in the eyes of their adherents.

Yeah those LIEbrals are always pRoJeCtInG! Probably because they're fascists.

Anyone have a mirror to the clip and/or article? It appears to be paywalled or something. (Account walled?)

[–] MapleEngineer@lemmy.world 29 points 1 month ago

Every accusation is an admission.

[–] BigMacHole@lemm.ee 12 points 1 month ago

EVERY single VIDEO is FAKE NEWS! UNLESS Trump posts it #TaylorSupportsTrump!

[–] ravhall@discuss.online 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Why can’t the link just be to the video?

[–] usernamesAreTricky@lemmy.ml 28 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Rules of this community says posts must be articles

If they removed that rule you would instantly realize why it was there in the first place.

[–] ravhall@discuss.online -1 points 1 month ago

All I want is the video.
