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!

(I’m not fooled by the name change)

What do you mean? The name change isn't for "fooling" anyone. When I update my "display name" the names get updated to all my past posts. So there is not "fooling" anyone.

And I have the same username, I haven't changed my username, so not sure what you mean by not being fooled by a name change. My entire post and comment history is public.

you systematically refuse to integrate information that contradicts your world view

OR maybe I just haven't changed my mind or my opinion.

You haven't changed your opinion about voting for harris. Does that mean you "you systematically refuse to integrate information that contradicts your world view"?

Her tap dancing around it to not openly admit she is Putin’s plant

Exactly. She's never said it. I don't belive she is. Let it go. You have your opinion, I have mine. I respect your opinion. Respect mine.

You do not provide any rebuttal other than “I am not convinced”.

I am under no obligation to provide any rebuttal or prove anything to you. I gave you my opinion. Accept it or not. Not my problem.

Also, I'm not even voting for Jill Stein, so calm down.

It does not matter who you claim you are or are not voting for. You defend her. With nothing but blind stubbornness. Still haven't rebutted the fact she has pro-Russian stances. Just more head in the sand.

I don't have to prove anything to you. I told you my opinion. You can accept or not. I don't care.

If you believe any part of the article is inaccurate, I encourage you to reach out to the news organization that published it. If you think the article doesn't align with the community guidelines, feel free to contact the moderators--they have removed articles that don't fit in the community. Thank you!
