politics
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!

Look upon his Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Just the straight-edge virtue signaling alone is 😬 And “debt-free”? That’s mostly dumb luck, and not at all moral virtue.
Edit to add: I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone as ratioed. No one on Lemmy is buying what he’s selling, but I guess that just proves how right he is.
I would be shocked if it's a single individual. That's why they won't engage in good faith and only copy paste generic bs.
It they aren't getting paid they're dumber than I thought possible.
Someone did a meta-analysis of all of their comments and posts, and it turns out it probably is one person since they are all posted and commented upon during standard and predictable hours. If it were multiple people, it would be 24/7, which it doesn’t seem to be.
Interesting, they've been seen replying to the same comments upwards of three times before as if it was their only reply
Come on not, 13 at least! Thank you! :)
Like everything else they do it’s all carefully crafted to rile up as many people as possible.
I often wonder if they are Harris supporters trying to be as obnoxious as possible to turn people off Socialist and Green parties.
One of the best ways to drain people’s energy these days is via the internet. — Colin Robinson, energy vampire
Woohoo! Straight-edge for the win!
Riiiiggghhhttt! lol
Whew! Good thing I'm not selling anything. Thank you! :)
