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!

Are they really doing a "heil Hitler" greeting over the children in the poster?
They really don't care to hide anymore...
Well, at least it should be easier to know, who deserves to eat a fist
Their slogan for the election was "Alice für Deutschland", meaning Alice for Germany with Alice being Alice Weidel, the party co-chairman and chancellor candidate. Seems like a predictable sounding nationalist slogan that also aligns well with their party name, until you realise it's actually a serendipitous pun on the Nazi slogan "alles für Deutschland", a phrase which is banned in Germany. The pronunciation of the two phrases in German is virtually identical. There's dog whistles, and then there's foghorns.
aslo he's demonstrating 0 understanding of what "centrist" means
AfD wants genocide while still wanting to appear respectable. That's centrism, at least in the US.
oof but also true apparently
Well, from Hitler's point of view, Hitler was in the centre of everything. Musk sees it like that.
No, he's trying to normalize them by denying their extremism.
i know
He obviously knows. It's on purpose.
i know. the truth is whatever we make it, and he's trying to make us make it stupid
Or what "most popular" means
Orange Chamberlain, LA-Z-Boy Vance and Golden Handcuffs Rubio honestly believe they are well adjusted moral individuals and it would never cross their mind for a second that hanging around Dictators or praising self identified Nazis while deporting people to foreign prisons might not be a super Jesus thing to do.
