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!

As this trickles down into American culture at large, the US is going to become a violent society. Casual violence, fights and road rage shootings, will be common. And the entire mentality will be dog-eat-dog, if you help someone you're pussified.
That’s literally what the US is right now, dude.
Heh, We already live like this. Thanks to the few the majority have to suffer through this without any hope that the powers that be will do anything useful to curb this behavior.
This morning I took my usual route to work. Its not the most popular route taking five to ten minutes longer from day to day than the main route. Its a two lane road with three spots where the lane expands to two lanes. For the most part its stress free which is worth more to me than five or ten minutes a day of my time.
Today however I was honked at and flipped off for four miles because the type A(Asshole) was mad because when the extra lane ended he didn't race to me in time to go around me. In this fools mind I had done him wrong by not pulling over to let him by. Four miles later the road expands in to a large two lane with a turn lane going both ways.
I blew him a kiss as he flipped me off when he went around.
@MehBlah @SnarkoPolo Sounds like a maggot. Be careful. You never know what the idiot will do.
Naw, this guy wasn't. Just another dipshit who is mad at everyone except the source of their problems. Which of course is them and only them.
Become? Will be?
Confused, would we?
