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!

Ha ha, no. The analogy is more like you supposedly realized you were brainwashed and it cult twice before and returned to the cult both times after that and now want us to sympathize and help a third time. You will just do it again, so fuck off. Fool me once, shame on...shame on you. Fool me...you can't get fooled again.
Lock the gate on the way back in we don't want any more of you fuckers getting out.
"We were trying to tell you for the last decade that it was a cult. How about you try listening for a few minutes?"
Good point. Fuck learning about why it took so long, fuck trying to deprogram them, get your moment of "told you so".
Maybe if he said anything about the racism or sexism being bad instead of just the lying and corruption. Or maybe it's time for the dumbest people on the planet to learn from the people who saw it coming instead of us always being told to listen to them.
If he wants to start making amends he can be the one that goes and explains it to the rest of the cult. I barely like talking to people who do agree with me, never mind some maga devotee.
