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!

Enemy of my enemy is my friend. For now.
It's like an alien invasion happening. Except a complete fascist takeover. And not even the Cheney's are willing to go that far.
Once this is over, if the good guys win, we can all go back to hating each other.
They're all my enemies though
With you. But we've got to prioritize one enemy at a time so we're not waging war on multiple fronts.
Let's take down orange Mussolini together first, then we can take down the republicans that allowed this to happen, and the ones that committed war crimes.
We'll never get to where you think this will get you. I won't make common cause with genocidaires.
Rare to see someone on an ML domain speak out against Stalin and more modern genociders like Xi. I'm with ya, but you should know, your instances admins like to ban for such things. Be careful.
So clever!
What, not being a hypocrite? If you criticize one. You should criticize the other. I agree the US and Harris shouldn't support and enable genocide. Neither should ML. Nothing about it is really clever. But if you think it is I think that says more about you than anyone else.
You really think you're doing something her don't you? Am I being harangued to vote for Stalin? Are my taxes funding anything Xi is doing?
Of course not. I literally complimented you on being genuine. And warned you about the hypocrisy of pointing out the same for other groups on that instance. Judging from your reaction something about one or both of those offended you.
Sure Stalin slaughtered tens of thousands of ethnic polish and helped WWII Germany take Poland. That's on the older side of things. Putin has slaughtered nearly 10M Ukrainians last I saw. Lots of ML, perhaps and hopefully not you, defend Putin in this. Xi and the vanguard party in China are similarly imprisoning and slaughtering any that do not conform to their prescribed monoculture. Which again far too many Marxist leninists support. Though hopefully not you hopefully you're being genuine. But from your responses so far I do question that.
What a felicitous meeting of two genuine gentlesirs! For my part, I would like to reciprocate the compliment and congratulate you on your steadfast opposition to the Democrat party, given their unwavering support for genocide in Gaza. It is a rare thing indeed for a .world user to go against the grain of liberal political opinion by refusing any political support to such monsters as Harris, Waltz and Biden.
Oh he's willing to go with that far there's just not enough in it for him.
