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!

So now you're just threatening people with more bullying? Do you not see how unhinged you've become?
Threatening people?! What are you even going on about? I haven't threatened anyone. Give me an example.
Saying your behavior towards me inspires me to parody it, isn't a threat. What in the world are you talking about?
And friend, if you post that sealion toon again, that's gonna knock all this down! lol
BTW, how many more times are you going to edit this? Never know when it's suitable to respond when you're feverishly rewriting your comments constantly.
Well, that's the ongoing saga of being a crappy writer. I type too fast. Then I think of something else what will clarify things, add to it. Take something away.
Trust me, just as annoying for me as it is for you. Even the stories I published to the writing community have been changed a few times after posting. lmao
But you know, there is a solution. You could just not reply or block me. Not that I am giving you advice, but you know...

No, you don't get to set the terms of engagement in a public forum
lol The fact that you think I was trying to set the terms of engagement, by making a suggestion, is hilarious. You're awesome, friend. But hey, at least you didn't post the sea lion 'toon; so we're getting somewhere! Thank you! :)
Seriously, get help
You too. Thank you! :)
