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!

First, sorry I must have come across wrong, I meant to just add to what you said not challenge you for not providing enough detail on race v class and such. I need word things in more clear ways, what seems clear to the author is often not to the reader.
The fire analogy, I have been calling it a dumpster fire, but it will burn for longer, so I was like, wait, what about a tire fire? Doesn't quite fit though they can burn indefinitely I think. But then, I was like, oh fuck, landfill fire. They have them going for decades, some places are siphoning methane for house use from them.
And finally, what about broken arrow? Never heard of it. I only heard of this from a person, never read it, about the nuclear dump. It's a person I did trust but have since learned is not reliable, but on this I trust him still.
No harm done, and I certainly understand a thing or two about failing to communicate myself in a way that is parse-able by others and retains my intent. I understand that all too well.
As for broken arrows: "A Broken Arrow is defined as an unexpected event involving nuclear weapons that result in the accidental launching, firing, detonating, theft, or loss of the weapon."
The nuclear powers all have way too many embarrassingly stupid ones on record, given that you'd expect nuclear weapons to be the literal most important thing with the literal most stringent procedures for handling.
There was one in NM in the 50s with some limited contamination exposed in the local area, and I thought that's what you were referring to.
Wikipedia has a neat list of both broken arrows (military accidents) and civilian ones, involving nuclear technology.
Oh yeah, the air force actually dropped two armed hydrogen bombs on North Carolina at one point. They didn't go off but still.
It is understandable though, who hasn't wanted to nuke north carolina at some point?
