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.

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.

Yeah, cause in a nazis belief system I should be enslaved or killed. There belief system is an existential threat to me, so yeah I'm not gonna cry if they're further away from me.
Mahmouds belief system is only an existential threat to the apartheid Israeli state.
That's not his belief system. He wants to kill everyone living in Israel, Jewish or not. Do you not know what "from the river to the sea" means?
It means calling for a one party state with equal rights for all. You know, what non-racist people should want. Guessing from your bad faith lies about that statement, I'm guessing that isn't you, though.
One of the last arguments defenders of apartheid systems like to use is: 'we can't give them equal rights. Do you know what they'll do to us? They might do to us what we did to them.'
Last time I heard this argument was from defenders of Apartheid South Africa about the ANC. Whom they also declared were terrorists.
You know, that racist shithole country whose final ally was Israel?
Apartheid countries like to stick together, I guess.
EDIT:
Do you think apartheid South Africa should have fought to maintain apartheid like Rhodesia did?
Why or why not?
Were the ANC arguing to kill all white people in South Africa when they argued for an end to an apartheid state?
How is that different from Israel?
If you're not an intellectual coward, you'll answer these questions, even if only to yourself.
EDIT EDIT: Holy crap you're a human walking contradiction. Based on your comments you're a pro-union anti-racist that is pro deportation without judicial process. You're also transphobic and racist against Chinese people.
You have no consistency to your ideological beliefs, like, AT ALL.
Yeah, it means the same thing as a song I was taught in elementary school:
From sea to shining sea,
Let freedom ring
It means let everyone in this land enjoy freedom. I suppose if your a cynical bastard you could say it means free of natives, but I don't think that's what the elementary schoolers, and everyone else who sings the song means.
Oh God no, what gave that idea? From the river to the sea means destroying Israel and killing every infidel there.
Actually now that I think about it, from sea to shining sea did involve killing a lot of native Americans. That actually lines up.
