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!

Gosh but I heard that all genocide is equal and Biden is literally the devil. Do you mean that having a meaningful impact on whether Palestinians live or die was worth swallowing my pride and voting for Harris? But isn't my ideal that no Palestinian should die more important than actually saving the lives of Palestinians?

/s I absolutely can't fucking stand people who were unable to realize that less harm would, in fact, be less harmful.

You say "unable to realize", I say "intentionally pushed a false narrative to increase voter apathy".

Especially since many of them refused to engage any discussion on how much worse Trump would be.

I have a feeling a lot of them were not American. The bot farms are quiet now because they got what they wanted.

or they don’t want to post on this echo chamber of rich privileged neolibs who enabled a genocide to happen, mocked col and got fascist selected by being toxic to anyone not slurping up dnc bs on everything ?

what happened to crook biden’s one term promise ? he did nothing on row vs jade to use it for reelection campaign, he did nothing to control inflation as he needed the superpacs dough for campaign fund ? he farted bs on gaza again and again ? did he even said a word after 30 day ultimatum when israel continues blocking food and vaccines for kids while setting hospitals on fire ? and now after election he is jerking off together with trump on fooling us with this farce.

dnc know they will one of the two choices becoz of spineless cks like you who will be happy to vote for promises of scraps.

one would think that maybe with all the sucking up here like reddit was just bots given how the elections turned out but content here is too stupid for today llm’s

and just like maga trash you can only talk shit behind keyboard. people in nyc are so angry at dnc rn that you will be lucky to not get punched saying any of the heavily voted snobbery here.

If Gaza is completely and utterly annihilated in the next four years, it will be the fault of dipshits like you. Not me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

why because we begged biden and dnc to stop it and blue maga like you said all is great, do what pleases you and give us more cheneys & snl ?

“dipshits” like us tried to make it an election issue for the holier than thou “democratic” party, while you all shouted it down while kids were burning alive in hospital tents. the blame & shame are both on rotten cowards like you who will be lining up to blow trump or netanyahu if they joins dnc tomorrow.

Well, not to worry. Because in 2-4 years there won't be a Palestine. See, Problem solved /s

same as harris, hell she would have said america voted for genocide which was proudly her main initiatives as vp and laugh about it

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

Too bad the actual fascist Americans who elected Trump are still with you. It's always someone else's fault not America's.
