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.

How to commit intellectual suicide and political homicide all at once!
Skill issue. Biden should simply stop enabling the genocide.
Are you voting for Biden in the general election? Yes or no?
Will he stop promoting genocide?
Lol unlike Trump, Netanyahu's buddy, who moved the embassy to Israel. Punish Biden, by helping Trump win, so that Trump can help Netanyahu demolish Palestine. Great plan.
No one asked about trump.
There's only two parties and two candidates you dolt
I mean there are more than 2, just only 2 that really have a horse in the race.
How does that make it acceptable to support genocide?
The question is a yes or a no, very simple. No further information is needed. Are you voting for Biden in the general election?
Are you supporting genocide?
Like I said, you don't need any further information to answer the question. It's very simple, yes or no, are you voting for Biden in the general election?
This guy you're arguing with is beyond being reasoned with. He's voting with his current feelings, not his brain.
Its a simple yes no question, do you support the continued genocide of.the Palestinian people?
I asked you first, and your inability to answer speaks volumes. You're a Trump shill.
Maybe he's just religiously dumb.
If every candidate supports Israel, doesn't this make it a non issue?
I guess extra-electorial action is required.
Ah ok, so you live in a fantasy world
This person is a pro-genocide NPC and this is where their dialogue tree starts looping.
Still can't answer, eh? Could it be because you, too, are here propping up Trump?
I won't answer. You are not owed an answer, you snivelling genocide apologist.
As I said: you can use the lack of an answer to reflect on how effective the broader strategy of defending genocide will be to move people to vote for Biden in the general election.
Please watch the segment and listen to the voters. Then discuss. Here's the full segment:

No thanks I'll pass on that. Also, that reply wasn't for you, everyone knows you're either voting for Trump or you're ineligible to vote because you're in Russia.
At this point Biden is the greater evil.
That may be the single stupidest thing I've ever heard.
Take a look at the rest of their comments. Trust me… they’ve said dumber things. They essentially parrot every right-wing talking point.
Vote for the guy that's helped facilitate the death of 40k people because the other guy would be worse, sounds more ignorant.
Blue is a cult too
Do you suppose Trump will pull us out of Israel? Do you suppose Trump will protect LGBTQ people? Do you suppose Trump will invest in the economy? Do you suppose Trump will forgive college debt?
If you answered "no" to any of those, they're not even remotely the same quality of candidate.
Voting strategically ≠ cult. And unless you can produce a viable candidate who's better than Trump and Biden and could beat both in November, it's just wishful thinking and fear of getting your hands dirty.
I'm not afraid of getting my hands dirty, but anyone voting for Biden has blood on theirs. Trump is garbage exactly like Biden. But in every case genocide is always the greater evil.
I'm calling concern troll, you are 100% in the tank for Trump.
Oh they absolutely are. They have next to nothing critical to say about Trump, his administration, or his criminal acts. Their account is anti-Biden propaganda only.
At this point, there no reason to hide the fact that you’re clearly a right-wing troll. You have offered nothing to any discussion aside from trolling and falsehoods.
At least you’re not denying it. It’s good that everyone can finally see you for what you are. It might just put to rest any attempt to correct the misinformation you spread here and just give people reason to block you from their feed.
I mean, how many comments have you had removed due to misinformation now?
Oh, and… as a rule: I don’t call myself anything. Its the mark of a free-thinking human being.
Democrats aren't trying to ban abortion, IVF, birth control, and no fault divorce.
Republicans aren't trying to ban guns, the death penalty, or legalizing drug use.
The two are NOT walking hand in hand.
Do you even understand WHY it’s all happening? Have you gone back through the history and relationships between the US and Israel? Agreements and proposals? Have you explored the nuance and complexity enough to arrive at the conclusions you’ve make up in your head?
Or are you just outraged because you like to be?
You’ve been asked by myself and many others to show your work. You NEVER respond to these requests. So it’s either that you can’t because there is no response you can give that doesn’t shed light on the fault in your agenda, or that you just can’t be bothered to explain it all.
If it’s the former, then you really need to walk away from these discussions and educate yourself on the matters.
And if it’s the latter, then you really need to walk away from these discussions as it’s bad faith to just pop in, shit on the discussion, and walk away without at least backing up what you say.
The floor is yours:
I’m going to ask you to go back even further. Really try this time.
Downvoted for telling folks to read the article. smdh
Never change, Internet.
And this is why Biden will lose and why Hillary lost. They don't want to listen to the voters.
No
Trump thanks you for your vote. Enjoy your MAGA fascism.
So far BlueMAGA fascism looks identical to MAGA.
How?
