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!

Who said anything about righting the ship? You do that by primarying democrat incumbents with progressives and socialists in every primary, and then in the general you prevent republicans from winning by picking the democrat because third parties are not viable in virtually every district, hence the overwhelming majority of federally elected representatives being from one of the only two viable parties. But you have to stop the fucking republicans from getting elected first. Pay fucking attention.
You sound like you need to chill out a bit. We were talking about protest-non-voters in the last general election.
Oh ok you can just go ahead and fuck yourself.
Yeah, the people that got Trump elected. Pay fuckin attention. And fuck off with your both sides rhetoric, it's accelerationist and elects republicans. Stop working for pedophiles.
Dude, your establishment Democrats are part of the pedophile cabal! The lesser evil is also evil and we need to stop supporting them and pretending we’re not part of the problem.
Congratulations, you put the greater evil in power. Enjoy your false sense of moral superiority while they're killing people like me. You're no better than a MAGAt.
"don't blame me, I voted for the better genocide supporting pedophiles!"
This is like talking to a wall. I hope you’re at least getting something out of arguing with these strawmen. Take care and I hope you get better.
