Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- 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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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'm aware, but this particular poster constantly posts these articles with that specific title format to push a very specific reaction.
I didn't write the article, nor did I write the title. If you think the news org is being dishonest, please contact them directly.
And why did you neglect to mention that I’ve posted articles that are critical of Trump, Stein, and Harris, as well as articles praising each of them?
So, if you’re assuming I agree with every viewpoint in the articles I post, how does that even work when I share so many conflicting perspectives?!
I'm curious why you left that part out. Can you clarify why you would imply that I only post one type of article, when my post history clearly shows that's not true? https://lemmy.world/u/UniversalMonk?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts
Because I don't spend my time thinking about you and feeling I need to check in on what you're doing and posting.
Well you cared enough to mention "this particular poster constantly posts these articles with that specific title format to push a very specific reaction."
But when I point out to you that I post all types of articles with all types of titles, you suddenly don't spend your time thinking about me?!
So you spend enough time to give out inaccurate implications about me, but not enough to time to be correct. Ok...
Also, I'm still now sure what you mean by "specific title format" since I don't create the titles.
For the record, I'm actually helping Harris and the Democrats win. I've turned people to the Democratic party just by my comments and attitude: https://lemmy.world/comment/12698046
@SatansMaggotyCumFart says "I’ve been a stanch socialist for years, always voting for the SWPUSA but I can’t wait to vote for Harris this year."
"I’m a proud democrat now due to your conduct in these comments."
and
"You’re definitely doing a great job drumming up support for Harris!"
And gets downvoted by ridiculous measures, which I'm glad for.
And yet, I'm still here. Because I don't care about downvotes, friend. Seems like they are very important to you tho. Thanks!
Yes you're quite proud of being loathed
