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!

Because you can’t admit there is Muslim genocide around the world. Because that genocide doesn’t involve the US, and, proving my entire original comment correct: you don’t give a shit about genocide when it doesn’t make the US look bad.
Thanks for proving me right this entire time. You might have had me dance, but I got your number, lol
Byyyeeeee
You read a lot into my refusal to answer your question a second time. Believe what you want; at least you're no longer trying to deflect.
I never was, you just like people to dance. But you only care about genocide when there’s something in it for you. That’s pretty disgusting. Although your whole dance and dash is pretty psychopathic, so I guess that makes sense. You’d make a good Israelite.
And you're back to deflecting. Believe what you want. I got you to admit that your god was committing genocide like you want him to.
I’m not deflecting anything. You are the one who refuses to admit the genocide exists outside of Gaza. That’s pretty disgusting. And it doesn’t make me feel bad when you tell me what I think, that isn’t true, I’m learning that’s the kind of person you are.
You can have whatever joyous feelings you want from this conversation. Just remember that I nailed it on the first try – which is clearly why you got so upset.
Love you good night 🚫
That's the opposite of what I did and you know it. If someone else asks me I'll answer them, provided they're not just trying to deflect from the US' involvement in netanyahu's genocide like you've been doing all day. You got my answer already.
How many more times are you gonna say goodbye?
