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!

So now I am an "enemy"

Democrats consider Trump voters their enemy. Why do you think they should treat Stein voters differently?

Yep, bullying and pressure,

Nobody is pressuring you.

The most pathetic thing about Green voters is that they think Democrats are trying to "pressure" them to switch to voting for Democrats. They aren't, for the same reason they aren't "pressuring" Eric Trump to switch to voting for Democrats.

Democratic campaigns focus all of their attention on their base (not you) and undecided voters (also not you). They give zero fucks about reaching Green voters. So they have one thing in common with Republicans: they see Greens as an obstruction that will easily be overcome.

How about not seeing everyone as your enemy? The republicans do that. And you guys are becoming just like them.

Friend, if you have seen the comments I get. lol

Now friend, I REALLY have to say you need to see some of the comments I get. lololololol

But hey, it's fine. Like you said, I'm not undecided. So I'll keep voting for my fav party, and they'll keep mocking me for it. Doesn't bother me at all. :)

OK, "enemy" or not, Democrats and Greens are indisputably opponents. So you should expect to be treated as one.

Ok, now that I can accept.
