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!

To let them know you can’t stop posting in a politics forum about a clear Russian plant less than 30 days before an important election when you should know better?
Yeah, I’m sure they’ll get right on it.
You do realise news sites will report on everything any public figure says, whether it’s relevant or not, but you choose to spread irrelevant shit here, right?
I posted a political news article to a political news community. This community celebrates diversity of thought and opinions. Which means you can post if you want to, and I can post if I want to. Thank you!
Knock yourself out, I guess, but I’d recommend you have a good long look at why everyone downvotes you so much. Maybe think about what you’re doing and that you might be wrong, and why.
You seem to have loads of time to spread misinformation, so I’ll just keep adding words, because every minute you spend reading my replies is another minute you won’t be spending time posting bullshit that helps christian nationalists divide the US.
What did you have for lunch? Did you enjoy it?
Uh oh. You may get banned by a disingenuous coward at some point soon :)
Ahem. I'm I'm just here to discuss the articles friend!
All I’m doing is pointing out facts and suggesting this user ruminate on the reason for their ban.
I’m only here to discuss articles, too, and this article is counterproductive. We’re all friends here! I like to be honest with my friends – what else are friends for?
Hehe I'm trying to do a parody of their account because I think it's funny but I'm not fully committed to the bit.
