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 US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted 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 other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
- No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. 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 an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have 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. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.
That's all the rules!

Is Reddit down? You tell us, five day old account.
I got banned long ago from there by the rat mods that don't like real leftists. Maybe you can go back there. They will allow the harmless lame pseudo-progressive circle jerk you prefer.
you sure talk the Reddit talk. Immediate personal attacks when confronted with words they don't like.
Seems like you enjoy getting banned a lot. You should probably think about that for a minute. You've already gotten banned from one place here within two days. With everyone's luck the rest will soon follow.
If they want to pretend they have free speech and then ban any opinion they don't like I can do without them. So I have an opinion you and others don't like. All I get in response is vicious personal attacks and pathetic slander. Looks like you're one of those. Instead of being nasty and wanting people banned and silenced, why don't you stay on Reddit. You can have your cleaned and harmless circlejerk where you won't have to hear an opinion outside of your little echo chamber?
Lol apparently not if this isn't your first account, you obviously can't help it
Freedom of speech has nothing to do with people not wanting to hear your toxicity. If everyone around you doesn't like you, you might want to think about the real reasons why.
You've got a lot of self reflection to do, my friend. Log off for awhile and consider some things.
