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!

Yeah, except for the marines. The marine corps is packed full of white supremacists, christian nationalists, regular nationalists, rapists, and just plain old psychopaths who signed up to get paid to shoot foreigners they see as subhuman. The majority of marines are trash, no matter how hard they threaten to beat or murder people who call them out for what they are.
Somebody's girlfriend got fucked by a marine.

Yeah, a lot of the Okinawans raped by marines probably did have boyfriends.
Some of my best friends are hard core liberals and Marines. Perhaps you shouldn't judge by the group.
Being a liberal doesn't inherently make someone a good person, and neither does being your friend, but voluntarily being part of and defending a morally abhorrent organization does make someone a bad person.
Being as socially inept and outright ignorant as you makes you both a pathetic waste of society's resources and a waste of a good wankstain. You should slap your father for not having the common decency to wipe you on the curtains.
A typical restaurant worker does more good for the American people in a week than a marine does in a career.
That fact that you bootlickers have only insults and nothing of actual substance to back your position up just makes my point for me.
Good to know I'm better than American marines, they must be useless fucks if they're outdone by a chef like me. And if marines can't even stack up then you definitely don't, I bet you don't even know which flavour of crayon goes best with an mre. Fucking pathetic weak ass wannabe big man, you can't even flex your mental acuity enough to get a creative reply out you braindead troglodyte.
That's the Air Force you're thinking of.
I'll never forget the first racist joke I heard in the Corps. I thought we were all green, others disagreed.
