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!

Diva already explained her lack of right wing criticism.
She’s so far from right wing that her criticism would be fruitless. She criticizes the Democratic party to have a place for her criticism to land.
Oh, this might just be a translation issue, see when I said "left wing criticism" I mean, criticism coming from the left wing directed towards things that are to the right.
You understand that the horizon of all political opinion doesn't terminate with the democratic party?
If I was to criticize the republicans it would still be a left wing critique, as they are to my right, just more so than the democrats.
You understand that the horizon of all political opinion doesn’t terminate with the democratic party, right? 😬
taking your analogy- what if the stubbed toe is gangrenous? that will kill you way faster than cancer. My point is that going along with genocide like this is actually to blame for this election not being a slam dunk against the most unlikeable person in history
Diva’s presence here doesn’t strike me as a “bit”. Are you claiming she’s some kind of undercover agent or bot or someone pretending to be someone or something they’re not?
What’s your point with this “bit” stuff? Do you think Diva is playing some kind of trick or something?
It's literally just me being myself, thanks for not misgendering me like the other ones I guess
you said:
Why would I be producing right wing criticism of the republicans? it makes no sense.
That's why I said it must be some translation issue like you meant to say there's no criticism of the right wing. Which is untrue, like for one democrats are right wing, and I criticize them, but I also don't have much productive to say about Republicans beyond that we should empty our prisons and fill them up with Republicans,

but only to re-educate them, like force them to break rocks and fill up their pristine truck beds with literally anything for onceThey could be trapped in a 15 minute walkable environment, tortured every day by not being able to get into a drive through to pick up their breakfast wrap and sit in traffic for an hour.
