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!

How's the weather in Tel Aviv right now?
Just because people disagree with you and or ozma doesn't mean that they are zionist or in Israel. I vote most of what I see from them down on sight just reflectively. I did not downvote this article though. Because this is one of the rare times they posted something that has a basis in facts.
Frequently ozma and compatriots can be seen posting articles and headlines around here. From journalism so glaringly yellow and sensationalist. The Sun would appear dim next to it. So bad it would make a Zionist blush if they had shame.
Not to mention how frequently they all downplay genocide. Accusing Biden of having committed genocide. Or calling him genocide joe. It belittles what genocide actually is. This isn't a defense of biden. He and Congress have absolutely enabled the genocide and should stop. But ozma and others should stop downplaying genocide as well.
Seems like it's a you problem.
I know exactly who posted just from the headline. This dude is insufferable.
Users don't write the headlines, this is the article headline. And she's not a dude.
And I knew exactly who posted it from the headline. I never said they wrote it.
Why don't you just block them and move on yourself?
Because I find it funny.
You find them "insufferable" and "funny". Ok.
Yes. Like those little yellow minions… or Trump’s supporters. Both insufferable, and both funny. And neither to be taken seriously.
Removed, civility.
I appreciate what you do - I really do - and this is probably fair (I only say probably because I don't remember what I said here).
I'm just surprised the other person doesn't have more removed.
Agreed
Your account is 11 hours old, yet you know what everyone here is annoyed with? Sure.
The ratio has spoken
You can see posts and who makes them without an account. I’m surprised you don’t know that.
It’s almost like you’re completely unaware of what an alt account is.
It's almost like I was pointing out the age of the account to infer that dude made another account to agree with himself. The usernames alone are kind of a giveaway.
We do like to assume, don’t we?
