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!

And look at the downvote to upvote ratio's on these comments. Kind-of a gross community here too.

Please by all means. Leave. You won't be missed one bit. You do realize with one exception. You're the only one here with a heavy downvote ratio. Perhaps there's a reason behind that? Perhaps it's something you yourself did. Perhaps you were the one being "gross" and immature. Like you always do. Perhaps it's because you can't help but resort to name calling. That you never have anything constructive or helpful to offer, ever.

Seriously, why are you here? Why aren't you over with the brain-trust on hexbear. They have a larger politics community there even. You could be among your peers. Childish accelerationist with no actual insight or solutions. Throwing your shoulders out patting each other on the back. For sewing misinformation and division to help get a fascist elected. You call people blue maga as a slur. But coming from someone like you. It's a badge of honor. Better to try to show solidarity to stand against an actual fascist. Than be a childish closed minded ideolog.

Please by all means. Leave.

Why would I leave my house? You the rest of the rotating sequences of alts and sock-puppets are the tourists. And more importantly, you were wrong.

Blue MAGA was wrong. When Whoopi Goldberg said she'd vote for a pants-shitter, that hurt the Democrats, and she was wrong. When Blue MAGA, here, relentlessly abused independents and people on the fence who were struggling voting for a candidate that supported genocide, that hurt the Democrats and lost them votes. If your goal in how you approached this issue was to get the Democrat elected, you were told, in advance, that the approach you were using not only wasn't working, but was actually counter-productive: and you belligerently continued knowing that you were doing harm.

So it begs the question: Did you ever actually care about the election, or were you just here for the abuse?

Your house hmm? Then why were you crying. Turn down your projection son.

Crying? The projection is yours child. I'm just putting the toxic cult which just got Trump elected on blast. I'm putting down a record so it can't be said that these delusional, abusive, narcissistic cultists were in a vacuum. They knew what they were doing and were told at the time of the consequences it would have.

They need to be identified, named, shamed, and ignored. They were wildly off-base with regards to was going to win Democrats the election, them cover led to maybe the most significant Democratic defeat of all time.

You're so precious. Toxic but precious.

Again, every exposition from you is an incrimination. Its literally ALL projection.
