Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

If only they would take Bill Penzey's advice and apologize for being cowards.

Good! Fuck Target and their shitty merchandise "selection". I've got an anti-DEI/MAGA-supporting boycott list as long as my arm and they're in the top next to Walmart and Amazon. After a few weeks, the one thing I realized is that you CAN do without these shitty retailers. I want to see their stocks drop like Tesla's.

We will capitulate and stop supporting LGBT. ::almost everyone hates that::

Shit ok, we will also just fuck DEI TOO. ::almost everyone hates that::
shit shit, WHAT DO WE DO?

It’s almost like acting like a shitty ass company when we thought you were cool for a little bit, does indeed bite you in the ass when you fuck your users over and over again. So fuck you Target!

The customer is always right, especially when they're left.

That whole "vote with your wallet" thing is really coming to bite these companies.

In my area, the Target is across the street from a large strip mall with a TJ Maxx and a couple of other stores. A couple of pretty good dollar stores up the street. Pretty easy for folks not to shop there.
