Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Yeah, you're right, the average republican voter thinks that democrats are vile, hateful, literally evil people that want to end their way of life... but they also can't point to something major is going to ruin their life in the next two months. Fuck with all those fools' health insurances, and every other service that's going to be sputtering in the gutter, and now you have the whole, "society is only [X] meals away from anarchy/revolution/chaos," AND you have the army of fools 'rising up' pointed at your political enemies for the thing they're now mad specifically about, rather than just generally.
It's also just part of their general faux news schtick: repeat the same thing, over and over. In this case, it's that democrats are the bad guys and at fault for everything. Can't let up the propaganda stream, or the people might start having independent thoughts in those heads. Maybe those thoughts would be that the republicans aren't on their side, or maybe that capitalism isn't benefiting any of them... so better keep it up.
I mean, it feels like Repubilicans have gone too far on this one. It's just becoming noise. No one believes the Republicans anymore. Someone neutral could ask, "If you want the Democrats to vote for it, what did you do to get their vote?" And the response would be, "Nothing."
You and I wish. I am in a red area, and the only thing that has changed in the last 10 months is that some people who were sucking orange man's virtually present dick are now also returning to saying that 'politicans are bad,' which is how they compartmentalize the pedophilia. Three guesses who they think are the pedophilic politicians.
