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!

In court papers, prosecutors described Timothy Hale-Cusanelli as a "Nazi sympathizer" who went to work at a Naval Weapons Station with a "Hitler mustache."

Gonna be honest, I kinda hate how the toothbrush mustache is a social faux-pas. It's cool. It's clean. It's modern looking. There's not many ways to style a mustache and having one of those very limited options being "illegal" sucks, as a guy who can't stay clean shaven for more than 12 hours and is always looking for ways to style it. I was almost ready to say, "maybe he's just a trendsetter."

Then I saw his picture.

"Hitler mustache?" Man, that's a Hitler cosplay.

yeah this is definitely a case of anti-clickbait. the stuff in the article is so much worse than the headline.

NPR is usually pretty good about understating headlines. Most times, I appreciate it, but this one could probably use some more meat on it

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

have you tried doing a windmill beard?

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

That dude was at the Weapons Station looking like that? Shit's changed since my day then. When I was there you'd get your ass beat for pulling that shit.

They thought they could host this guy without creating a fuhrer.

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Trump probably upgraded the dude's room and gave him half a box of stolen nuclear secrets.
