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!

The youngest woman they talked to was 56. Abortion doesn't matter to any of them because they aren't child-bearing age. Once again the conservative lack of empathy shines through.

[–] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

It is possible abortion matters to them, just not in the way we'd think. After all, repeatedly asking their grown kids, "So, when will I be meeting my first grandchild?" at every possible opportunity sure hasn't worked.

I noticed that as well. They no longer have any skin in the game.

You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land.

You know… morons

[–] YeetPics@mander.xyz 11 points 1 month ago

They are idiots.

You can't support skin-wetness and also vote to force people to wear clean, dry towels.

Because they want to hate more than they want women to have bodily autonomy.

When they like his economic policies and are concerned for everything costing so much and not affording anything... Meanwhile during trumps time a tax increase every year for the last 4 years for the lower tax bracket while decreasing the tax on the rich. Economy changes take time and they are seeing trumps policies take affect these last 4 years. During his presidency they saw Obamas economy affects in action. They liked Obamas policies.
