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!

You write the same robotic phrases over and over...
You are certainly advocating for Jill Stein. Why deny it?
And why write a bunch of irrelevant paragraphs in response to every critical comment? I think the "are you okay?" bit applies to you. Also the "you're very worked up" routine is boring and it doesn't work.
I only posted a political news article to this political news community. I didn't write the article, friend.
Have you contacted the news org about your concerns and let them know that you'd like certain news censored? Maybe that should be your first step. I hope you start feeling better. Thanks!
The posting just happens guys he can’t help it, he has nothing to do with it!
YoU sEeM wOrKeD uP!!!1
Are you ok. Because now your typing is sorta strange looking. Everything ok?
I didn't invent the construct, friend. If you have a problem with the construct, perhaps go to reddit and yell into the void about it. Are you experiencing an episode? I'm very worried about you
I don't know what you mean. If you are still mad about the article, please contact the news org that produced it. I didn't write the article. If you think the article doesn't fit the theme of this community, please let the mods know.
That makes no sense. Are you able to react like a human would?
Your comment makes no sense. Do you think that you aren't talking to humans?! So aliens, maybe?! Are you ok?
If you were human you would know what I mean.
I don't know what you mean. You really seem to be off-kilter or something because of bizarre responses. I do hope you're ok.
Off kilter. Really? You mean I'm literally copy pasting the same weird response over and over? That must seem pretty fucking wack
You seem awfully upset as a result of someone simply posting an article. I didn't create the news, friend. I just posted it. :)
You seem awfully for someone simply posting an article.
That sentence doesn't make sense.
I'll bet you are. Concerned I might vote for a democrat, which I absolutely will and I will think of your bizarre dishonest self while I do it.
Good for you, mate! I totally support and respect your right to vote for whoever you want! As I am sure you support and respect my right to vote for whoever I want. Thank you!
If only you were legally allowed to.
I'm not sure what you mean. I've been voting since 1988. But let's try to keep the comments from getting personal and just focus on the article. Thank you!
