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!

Lot of leftists racists on Lemmy along with right wing. I was just banned from memes because I told a Tankie that I lived under communism and it sucked. He then denied that I lived under communism or that I was even brown. I then told him I also hate capitalism for commiting genocide on my people, but the communists weren’t much better to the indigenous. He then told me I was again lying and that communists wouldn’t hurt natives.
I called him out on the racist view so I got banned
Edit: as an indigenous person I’ve seen the most racism out of the left these past two years than anytime and it’s concerning. Downvoting me as if it’s not real isn’t helping. Be better than MAGA.
Off topic.
Where is it that you live under communism?
I'm sorry that happened to you, dude. Fuck tankies, fr.
The right are masters at racism but they don’t have a monopoly on it. I’ve called out a few Americans on their hypocrisy and how they now act like they’re the leaders in anti genocide and anti war. It’s just a leftists world police. Fix your shit American left, instead of trying to police the planet on what you guys fail at
You did read the news who won the last election, did you?
