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!

you have no idea what I did in the last election, but playing word games doesn't change the fact that only votes for Trump elected him, and any vote for anyone else was a vote against him
No word games, sorry. Writing in your mom doesn't prevent Trump from being president. How then could that vote be a vote against Trump? Take some responsibility. You've earned it!
you're vote didn't stop trump. you should probably take some responsibility.
I do. I'm proud of what I was responsible for: trying to prevent fascism.
a vote for Democrats wouldn't have done that. maybe next time you can choose something effective.
Democrats aren't fascists. Words have meanings.
they are. but you'll never read Mussolini so you'll never believe the uncomfortable truth.
Still waiting, BTW.
From what you've posted so far, you would have failed my 9th grade English class's section on writing arguments. Subject, Example, eXplanation, and why this matters to You. I guess this is what happens when a generation is raised by iPads and then school is canceled for 2 years hahahaha...
Hmmm which specific quotations of Mussolini would you like me to read? LOL...
