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!

MODERATORS
That’s why they are calling it voter fraud. In their eyes anybody can just steal a ballot out of somebody’s mailbox and fill it out and send it in. And nobody would know. So because it’s possible, it means the democrats are doing it and that’s the only reason they win.
Keep in mind that even though Trump won in 2016 he said there was voter fraud that made it so he didn’t win the popular vote. They have been setting up this narrative for years if not decades.
Of course the republicans in power know exactly what they’re doing and why.
They don't believe it though. Only the particularly dumb sheep believe the democrats are cheating.
The ones making these arguments, their politicians, pr people, power brokers, business dickheads, they ALL know it's a lie and betrayal of the republic, not that ignorance is an excuse for a grown learned person betray America.
Yes, these are the ones that I want cornered and made to answer. The dumbasses that believe Faux is a real news channel are mostly too stupid to know better. I'm talking about the thought leaders.
There’s a lot of dumb sheep though. A LOT. Living in the south I meet tons of people that will casually throw out “voter fraud” and “illegals voting” all the time. They know it happens. And whether it’s a significant amount or not, it needs to be stopped. And democrats are throwing interference cause it benefits them.
This is the argument. They don’t think it would change the results. Meanwhile, the politicians that are lying about voter fraud know that legitimate voters would be disenfranchised and that would change the results.
I’m not saying we should forgive them for being idiots. Just good to know who we’re fighting against.
