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!

Salem Media is a fully evil enterprise hell bent on destroying these United States.
It is way past time to say "fuck your goddamn free speech!" and start arresting and imprisoning agent provocateurs who deliberately spread blatant lies to push political agendas. These people are enemies of the state, stochastic terrorists, anti-American activists, and are the very thing that the US President is sworn to defend the country from.
And any of you who say "but we have to defend free speech even for the Nazis" are equally culpable and should join them in prison AFAIC so dont even bother trying to hand me that fucking bullshit. It's equivalent to saying trump shouldnt be prosecuted because you might be alao if you commit crimes.
I think you should be jailed for suggesting such a thing.
Since you're obviously not defending fascist propagandists out of an abstract concern for free speech, I can only conclude that you're doing it because you support their cause.
Since you support jailing people just for making the free speech argument, I assume you're a fascist. So you should be in jail along with your supporters. It's logic.
Note that I myself didn't make a free speech argument. The opposite. I suggested someone be jailed for what they think.
That wasn't me. And no they didn't.
They did support jailing people just for making a free speech argument:
If you don't feel the same way that's great.
Bitch slapped at the very least
As expected: liberals defending Nazis and then being surprised that they have Nazis
