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!

Okay, The Nation. Have fun sticking to your single-issue when the freedom of expression means praising Dear Leader or else be threatened of being shut down by the next administration.

Oh and Israel gets not just tacit permission, but outward encouragement to commit genocide from the USA, many thanks to sticking to your principles. Neutrality and enlightened centrism win the day.

It appears to be by the nations interns.

We do not support Donald Trump, but to champion Harris at this moment is to ignore the atrocities that are being carried out with weapons supplied by the Biden-Harris administration.

Everyone with a functioning brain should vote for Harris. Everyone with a functioning moral core should criticise her every single day until she changes course on this. Just because Trump lowers the bar so much doesn't mean it's ok to roll around with him in the mud.

Voters have absolutely zero impact on what politicians do. There won't be any criticizing that's going to get them to change their mind, even fucking Biden wouldn't drop out until the money stopped flowing.

Only a real fucking idiot that wants the genocide to worsen won't vote for Harris. It's not a hard choice at all really.

"But but but Harris supports the genocide". Maybe if you live under a rock and don't understand how politics and elections work that's a valid argument.

A non vote for Harris is a vote for genocide escalation, and the likely deaths and suffering of millions more. Only a real cunt would be in that category.

OP's comments and post history........WOW

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

So say the Nations interns. LOL.

I'm glad they're giving the kids a platform, but they really don't get the ramifications of what they're talking about.

Harris has repeatedly called for a cease fire.

Trump to Bibi? "Do what you have to do."

Those are your two choices this cycle.

No problem. She can have mine, and that of others who think like me, while the rest of the idiots can whine about why they allowed the orange shite back into the white house again.

[–] Dkarma@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

People who empower trump will always be lower morally than Harris.
