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!

Lmao, I’m very scared of the conservative witch hunt coming my way. I wonder if it’ll be as violent as what you call for against conservatives.
You once again are showing much more of your intellectual capability within your critique then you are exposing any truth carried by your critique. If you can read that paper and come to the conclusion that conservatives don’t possess empathy you’re blinded by bias.
Ultimately you will never have an ounce of respect from any significant portion of the population because you routinely call for the exact action your fear monger conservatives will enact. The worst version of a conservative you could ever come up with is just you with a bible in hand.
Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. I am not fooled by you pretending conservative violence upon the vulnerable is "imaginary". You know we (the normal people) can see it, right? We document it in video and share it on social media. All while conservative propagandists and apologists lie incessantly, trying to gaslight the population to disbelieve our eyes and ears. Your lies are tiresome and weak.
You have not convinced me to alter my views about how conservatives/fascists should be dealt with. Not even a little. In fact, the more you squirm and post weak deceptions, the more confident I become in my understanding of my enemy.
You’re genuinely schizophrenic, aren’t you?
I hope you get the help you need.
Sounds like something a conservative would say. Picking a random psych diagnosis out of a hat because conservatives don't value psychology... then pretending to care that someone would get the help they need when conservatives are biologically unable to care about the well-being of others.
You could have outsourced that attempted insult to Grok! 🤣
Let me try one... You seem to suffer from a pathological need to lie. I hope you get the treatment you voted for.
How'd I do? 😆
Yeah, I’m not trying to insult you. I think you’re suffering from schizophrenia. If you’re undiagnosed please seek help.
OK. Well, bless your tiny little heart. Sounds like you're suffering from multiple myeloma. I hope you get the medical bill you voted for.
Well I’m still not a conservative, and I voted for Kamala.
Let’s make a deal and we both go get checked. I think that would benefit everyone involved.
It's hard to know if you're being honest in text because I can't tell if you're intentionally mispronouncing her name or not. But, I'll agree to get checked anyway. It's pretty convenient for me because one of the voices in my head is Dr. Freud!
