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!

If only this would ruin him the way the Internet comment ruined Gore.

That's the magic of this dumpster fire .... when you've been burning stinking garbage the whole time ... you could set fire to a rancid dead cat and people no longer care because they've all been conditioned to no longer be shocked by whatever you say or do. They've grown to expect nothing but stupidity from him. Insanity has become the norm.

The problem is not Turnip ... the problem is everyone thinking this is all normal now.

Have you seen the Internet? Al Gore should be ashamed of himself for enabling this shit. If we’d stopped at Minitel, we’d still get important info like weather and then gone back to reading books.

What a great timeline that would have been.

I think there's a movie that sort of depicts this recently. Can't remember. It takes place in the future but without sophisticated computers. All analog monitors and inputs. Command line interface. Green on black.

Maybe it was the series Maniac?

The thumbnail above conveniently censors the naughty bits, allowing this article to be SFW.

You got a laugh out of me while I'm at the doctors. Take the upvote and get outta here!

Didn’t the dumbass ask what it meant?

Felon Drink Bleach is the father of paying to solicit sex.

Are we still doing phrasing? Also, where's Maury when you need him?

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I am sure he did a lot of sperm donating so in his mind it is true.

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 3 points 1 month ago

Which is terrible given all the SA he did.

[–] ChowJeeBai@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Weird. He doesn't even say this about Eric.

[–] mack7400@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I can believe that. Most women would rather have a date with a turkey baster than him.

He invented it, duh.

Father of spray tan, wigs, and eye makeup.

Fat fucking loser.
