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!

I think there's a website with them on it. https://www.peopleofwalmart.com/
That's classist as fuck.
You can be poor and not roll up to Walmart un-showered in a threadbare moomoo chain smoking 305's and needing to be told to not smoke in the store. But those people choose not to.
Suggesting that the people featured on that site support Boebert
Are you saying that if you asked people in one of her district’s Walmarts you wouldn’t find anyone who voted for her?
Im saying that that site is classist as is suggesting that because someone is poor and has acted inappropriately that they necessarily back her.
But if some of those pictures are taken in her district then some of those people voted for her, right?
You are literally the only one here suggesting that shopping at Walmart has anything to do with one’s class or being poor.
Im guessing you never visited that site
Given your track record, you should probably stop making guesses and assumptions. You’re just digging yourself deeper in that hole of yours.
If you have why would you be arguing that the site is not classist?
I never made that argument. Again, you’re the only one here mentioning class judgments with regard to Walmart. I’m just pointing out that fact. 
Answer my question, coward.
