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!

Why do you keep using social virtue signals to prove you’re right? People can be right about one thing and wrong about another. You and certain other users gang-dragged me before and I stuck by my position, agree with you on others and I’m not worried you disagree, using only insults and social virtue signaling to do. I said what I said. I dummy agree with taxpayer dollars supporting fascism, at home or abroad.
I see, pointing out that the premier LGBT+ publication in the U.S. probably wouldn't support a Nazi is 'virtue signals.'
Also, 'gang-dragged?' Do you think we got together and coordinated or something?
Also also, please quote me insulting you- or was that a lie?
Yes; idk but it’s certainly hive mind; so your asking if I was from a certain server wasn’t an insult in your mind, nor your whole holier-than-thou condescending tone in all the posts past and present, wrt the same topic: disingenuous at best, sure. Here, this user said it all, after the first time you particular three brigaded Mr the first time I expressed myself wrt funding Nazis, I resolved to no longer waste time defending my position:, but this user thoughtfully used a lot of time to make good points, which probably won’t phase you. https://lemm.ee/comment/9122407
Wait... so you think we're literally psychically linked? Because, believe it or not, I don't even know who else you're talking about when you say "you particular three."
Also, that user did not claim Zelensky is a Nazi. You did. You have done nothing to support that claim. Maybe do that rather than claim I insulted you when I didn't and implying I have ESP.
You’re an immature child making wild accusations and putting words in my mouth. Goodbye.
Let's see... The three claims I made in that post...
You said Zelensky was a Nazi. You did. https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]/t/825852/-/comment/5093641
You claimed I insulted you. You did. https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]/t/825852/-/comment/5100485
You implied I had ESP. You did. https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]/t/825852/-/comment/5100689
So I'm not sure which ones of those are wild or where I put words in your mouth. I'm also not sure why you have to lie like that.
Furthermore, I'm not sure why you would indignantly accuse me of insulting you, deny you accused me of insulting you, then insult me by calling me an immature child.
Did she?
Didn't you?
Did she?
Nice try, but unfortunately for you, I'm able to read.
Also, I notice you didn't address the whole 'immature child' thing right after complaining about me insulting her. I guess you think it's okay when she does it but not okay when you decide I do.
You've been spending way too much time with Trump supporters if you think whataboutism is a valid rhetorical technique used by adults.
Pointing out your hypocritical double-standard is not whataboutism. Sorry.
I didn't apply a hypocritical double standard. You made a false claim and used whataboutism to deflect when I pointed it out.
Okay, you're welcome to believe that.
The fact remains that Zelensky is not a Nazi.
Of course he isn't. Did you click the link to the source I provided about actual Nazis in the Ukraine military?
Your link was not relevant to the person I was talking to's claim that Zelensky was a Nazi.
