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!

Pay attention at all to the world around you
Conservatives will take Leftist positions to garner support. Trump advocated for more social policies than any candidate, but never implemented them
If you’re actually a leftist (just very stupid for one) then try to apply some form of rationality to your life
Even the stupidest of leftists know that the covil war was about slavery and slavery alone.
I would like to think people that dumb can only be conservative because it shows an absence of thinking skills
Which is why I insist that you are a conservative. And so does everyone else here.
Oh you’re confused, I have critical thinking. That’s why I don’t share your conservative views
My view of the Confederacy is a lot worse than yours because you think it was just about slavery and that everything else was jolly
You’re a confederate apologist and have no idea about right or wrong because you just parrot what you hear rather than thinking at all.
Hey everyone, look at this asshole! I was born and raised in the Sputh and I hate that fucking olace so goddamn much that I moved 6000 miles away from it and am damn near a full blown Tankie but this fucking genius thinks I'm a "confederate apologist" for telling him what the separation articles said.
What a fucking pussy--assed little bitch.
You’re a confederate apologist because your stance is “if it weren’t for slavery then they’d be good”
Being from the south makes sense though
When Biden wins again, if there is another civil war it’s nice to know you’ll say it’s because he stole the election “because that’s what the rebels said it was about “
You really are psychotic and are simply making things up. Here's how it went: -YOU STATED that the Civil War was not about slavery -EVERYONE ON THIS FORUM said you were full of shit, including me
You are psychotic and deranged. If you respond to this message or to me anywhere again you get blocked.
I don’t care how many of you are wrong
Go to Trump rally and say Biden won, you’ll get the same result
Lol what a stupid threat, if I was at all afraid of being blocked then how is that any different than being blocked?
You should block me because you possess no ability to think.
