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!

The plan is to fight on a local level, call your elected reps and make them fight or catalog all the not fighting they are doing so we can primary their asses with receipts.
I don't think change is possible until after the boomers are gone, so until then Ill just show up to the midterms and do my part.
But this party has to go, and I think they need to keep losing until people lose all hopes in them and then we can form a new grassroots party.
Above all do not donate, if the elites own the party then the elites can pay for it too
Wow.
That's the biggest pile of double talk I've ever seen.
You're going to show up at the midterms and vote, but no one should donate?
And the boomers are going to be around for another ten years at least. But I'm sure that Trump and his MAGoos will hold off on any radical changes.
There's no easy solution either way.
I vote in every election so I'll continue to do my part, but the Dnc failed us and I'll never give them a cent.
There will be plenty of time to rebuild after the boomers are gone.
Username checks out.
Im sorry am I the dnc? I don't see you with any solutions 🤣
I think at this point, the Boomers have gone all in on "We brought you into this world, and we can take you out of it."
As a generation, they have never cared about anyone but themselves. They seized financial and political power early, and they won't let go until we pry it out of their cold, dead hands.
But their numbers are dwindling now, and I think we might finally be at a point where -- if the other generations band together -- we can finally take their political power for ourselves.
This is my hope, and also why im just not letting myself get angry this time around.
There was never going to be any change or growth with this deadweight generation.
This isn't over and time is on our side.
