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!

Don’t care who you stupid Americans vote for.
Apparently you do
How did you come to that conclusion? The whole post is about Ross. And my comment about that all politicians are liars, including your favorite one. You're not very bright.
Because you're still here, caring so hard.
I care that people are so dishonest that they tell lies about me.
Also about the US election
Well, you made a post about the US election, commented about the US election, and then said you don’t care. Just…doesn’t add up, Watson.
lmao, you are posting obsessively about Trump and Biden. Who are you lying to?
Wow, one two posts that contain trump since I joined lemmy and I obsess about him. You're deranged.
Look, you posted something about Trump that seems to be positive. People didn't like it. They let you know.
Your response was to spam the thread with a meme about how not supporting Biden doesn't mean you are supporting Trump. But here's the thing: The story you posted wasn't about Biden. Nobody brought him up. You (the guy who isn't obsessed) brought up Biden when people were just pissed because they don't want to hear about Trump's campaign promises here.
You could have just said, "Hell no, I just thought it was interesting that Trump wants to free the Silk Road guy right after getting booed by a bunch of people with #FreeRoss signs", and you'd probably have gotten upvotes.
Instead, you spammed meme nonsense like a boomer. Don't tell me you don't have terminal politics-brain.
