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!

I never said it did. There's your answer.
Like I said, you missed literally the only point I was making. And you're not interested in changing that.
Keep being angry at nothing.
War crimes supporters should leave lemmy. You add nothing here.
I don't support war crimes. But I'm seeing it on this thread unfortunately.
Would you mind reading the username there?
Wow. Eptiome of honor here. I bow to your "holy" presence.
Definitely not a cowardly intellectually dishonest sophist.
Do you think all consequences of aggressors are justified?
Still not an answer to the question. One that you posed.
I see you're dodging your own quotation.
Who cares how much support there is for a genocide? why even bring that up? I'm 100% sure you won't answer this either.
I think imposing any consequences on the aggressors of a genocide would be a good start.
I care. I don't want any support for genocide. Because then you get genocide.
Do you think all consequences for the aggressor are justified?
The obvious and moral position is that nobody should support genocide.
Which is why I don't care who supports genocide. If you support any form of genocide your opinion automatically is worthless to me.
Who cares who supports genocide? Those people can be instantly discounted.
Your question is inane. Answer my previous question if you want an answer to this. You have yet to answer anything I've posited. It's an interesting technique to impose your own question and demand an answer when you have answered none.
So you condemn Nat Turner?
