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 politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted 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 another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- 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 a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple 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.
That's all the rules!

No, you THOUGHT what I said was shitty. But it wasn't directed to you. And I didn't think it was shitty. YOU think it's shitty. And that's your right. But then you called me a name.
So yeah, let's use your scenario. You're walking down the street, you hear someone yelling what you think is ignorant shit, and you call them cringe. Then they stop, turn around and defend themselves to you, and then you say they are mean and shouldn't have said that.
You are the one playing victim here, not me. You said I was a troll because I responded to your insults.
How about you don't insult people just because you don't agree with what they said?
I have never called you names. You have called me names.
You think that's cool. I don't think it's cool and I think it weakens your argument.
"I love how much drama she's causing."
That is cringe as fuck. Especially if you're an adult.
And in your scenario you're still wrong lol. I walk down the street and hear someone yelling and call them cringe. If they feel the need to come over and defend that to a random stranger that makes them even more cringe. How weird.
Cringe to you. But I do love how much drama she's causing. She made the dems so scared they financed a fucking commercial about there. I'm all for anything that shakes up the status quo.
You seem to be seeing "cringe" everywhere you look. That's a "you" problem, not a "me" problem, friend. Thank you! :)
Friend, once we end democracy, we can lock these people up! They cannot infringe on our rights like this. Shills unite!!!1
