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!

He's straight up just a contrarian at this point. He wants to be "different," by not choosing one of the "mainstream" candidates.
It's also probably a calculated move, financially, as he doesn't want to alienate the people who make up half his audience by endorsing Kamala or Trump. Probably more than half if he endorsed the former.
Typical bourgeois attitude, putting your own financial needs (that are already met 1,000x over) above literally the survival of the Republic.
They're not even nihilists, because they worship at the alter of capital.
It's gross.
It's all about money for him.
Could you imagine someone doing a job for money?
Can you imagine someone doing a (pretty fucking easy) job for something like 4 to 5 orders of magnitude more money then the average American, and then still making your politics about paying less taxes.
They're the worst people on the planet, and he's particularly bad due to his massive platform and young fans.
Who you're voting for is a protected bit of information. Nobody can force you to say who you voted for legally.
This was a move for $$$. morally that is fucked. Glad you're here to sway opinions on the bald fuckwit.
Does that apply to any media personality or just the ones you don't agree with?
