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!

Trump admin just announced they're ethnic cleansing 1m Palestinians from Gaza, but thank you for holding the memory lapse thing to account 🫡

[–] piefood@feddit.online 5 points 13 hours ago

You mean the ethnic cleansing that Biden also supported?

Yeah, maybe Biden should be called out for that.

Ethnic cleansing enabled by democrats that claim they supported a ceasefire when they did no such thing. An ethnic cleansing enabled by liberal voters parroting those lies to people that were calling them out

Show me the Democrats plan ti relocate 1m gazans to Libya and I'll admit you're right.

If you can't, you should accept that your principles made the situations worse for everyone, including the Palestinians.

There wouldnt be a relocation of Palestinians by anyone if liberals had the balls to hold their people accountable.

  1. Biden was literally dropped as the nominee.

  2. If we all shit on Biden like you want, it is not going to get the trump administration you helpdd elect yo reverse course.

  3. I think it is now estimated that 30 million Africans are going to die as a result of aid cuts from the trump administration. Thank you for volunteering them to die in solidarity with the people of gaza, great job.

Biden was pushed out by rich donors who refused to back him after his disaster of a debate where there was no hiding his mental decline. And despite that voters kept insisting he was fine.

Liberals helped elect a carnival barker 2 times with their arrogant hubris.
