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!

If I cared that you would use that flimsy bullshit story I wouldn't have called you on your incessant anti-Biden obsession

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Was that a coherent thought before you typed it?

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Nah because if you acknowledge what I said, maybe you'd have to address the thousands of messages you've written with the obvious goal of re-electing Trump. Easier to just pretend any opponent has a mental deficiency or something

Criticism of Biden isn't campaigning for Trump, no matter how many times you pretend it is. If Biden doesn't step down, he will lose. And you will blame everyone who tried to warn you.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

If he does step down, the only thing we could be sure of is that there is a new risk introduced. The certainty you have about this is also suspicious on top of the months of anti Biden messaging I've seen from you

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world -3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You think everything to your left is suspicious.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

That is the cop-out you usually go with. Irrespective of its falseness

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I've seen you make the same wild accusation plenty of times to other users.

Don't love Biden? Don't love genocide? Only possible explanation is that you're a Trumpist! Now you're the enemy and I get to treat you like shit!

Which by no coincidence whatsoever is how you want to treat those to your left and only your left.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You probably couldn't be honest if you tried

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world -1 points 4 months ago

I've never seen you treat anyone to Netanyahu's left with respect.
