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!

If Trump wins and has his SS start shooting Pro-Palestinian protestors, it’ll be really hard to hold back from saying “told you so”
They'll have put their red hats back on by then.
You’re just telling on yourself that you’re a fascist at heart then.
Elaborate on that logic, please, because it doesn't make sense to me.
needs more smug
Why is it that everybody with a differing opinion than yours is called a fascist? The word does not mean what you think it means and by using it in this manner, you're making the word lose its meaning.
How about bringing real discussion to this thread instead of whatever this is?
This is smelling a lot like the republican "Not everything you don't like is racist/fascist"
How different is the person with the gun to the person who is standing nearby saying "you deserve this"?
What the fuck is this abuser talk? Nowhere did they say anything about deserving it, you are projecting your emotions here.
What they DID say was it'd be difficult to not say I told you so, as in, I told you your choices would lead here. 'You fucked up and now we're here' is a far cry from 'you deserved it'.
Standing by and saying told you so isn't even that different to "you deserve it" if you aren't stepping in to help prevent it.
