politics
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!

Correct. I don't. :)
Yay! Finally someone understands!
What agenda do you think I have?
And if my "main character" syndrome bothers you, feel free to not respond to me or my posts. You can always ignore me or block me if you want. That way you don't have to read my replies. I mean, everyone responding to me and egging me on, just adds to that "main character" syndrome, right? So hey, no comments, no drama. Because the majority of my comments are in reply to someone.
Thank you! :)
Wait, you didn’t reply and you edited your comment to add the “e” to the end of “syndrom” but you’re still spelling it “charactor”?!
Bwahahahahahaha! Oh, that’s just precious. 🤣
Meh on my phone on a break. I'll get to it when I get to it. lol But hey, look on the bright side, it proves I'm not a robot! :)
Maybe that’s a sign to focus on quality and not quantity? I mean there’s low-effort and then there’s low-effort with typos.
So you got all that from a typo because I was on my phone during a break at work?! Ok...
But nah, I'll keep voting for who I find interesting and matches my values and keep voting any article I find interesting, even if you don't approve. Thank you!
Right - because your flood of low quality posts and comments weren’t a tip off already.
And are you “posting what you find interesting” or “voting what you find interesting.” What an odd turn of phrase. Hmm, must be another break on your phone, huh? Or are you having a stroke?
Both. I'll keep voting for who I find interesting and most aligns with my values. And I'll keep posting whatever articles I find interesting. Feel free not to read or comment on them if you don't wanna hear from me. Thank you!
Yeah, sure, that’s totally what you meant!
Glad I could clarify. Thank you!
As with everything you post, clear as mud
But you agreed that it was totally what I meant. Doesn't sound like mud to me. Thanks.
If you’re going to quote what I said, could you at least spell it correctly? I thought you’d be well experienced copying and pasting by now?
