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'm not upset that I'm not getting my way. I'm upset that I'm seeing skeletal children in my Instagram feed while Butcher Biden announces he's going to start work on a pier that will take two months to build while hundreds of trucks full of food are just sitting at the Gaza border. If mass murder doesn't bother you, carry on sneering at those of us who do care.
What Biden is doing with his material support of a genocide is unequivocally worse than anything Trump did. You can't go lower than genocide. Yes, you will reply that Trump would do the same or worse than Biden in Gaza. But this isn't the Trolley Problem. There are other options. If we don't choose another option, it's not because we don't have a choice, it's because we don't give a fuck.
welcome to adulthood, where you have to live in the real world. surprised it's just now upsetting you but you do you man. apparently only some of the world's starving children are worth your time?
You're right, it's not the trolly problem, it's the real world, and shit's a lot more complex than your tiny head can wrap around, so you go the opposite route and reduce things beyond their actual simplicity, because it's all you can do.
your other options are all losers to trump, so you'd like to change horses mid race and lose, be my guest, but you do you, don't tell me how to live mcfuckwit, because Biden's going to win, again, and make trump look like a fool, again, then go on governing, AGAIN, because it's the real world and not your hissy fit.
have a nice life, gonna block you now, have fun at the trump rallies.
