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!

Oh no the leopards gonna eat the old dumb fucks good riddance.
That's many of us in a few years.
And it's money we earned, taken out of our paychecks already.
This is simple theft, and it hurting a few more of the 'right people' now is not a good thing when it hurts all (American) people soon.
A big salty tear. You get what you deserve 🤡
So if you didn’t vote for the clown and are in a blue state you deserve theft? What kind of dumb shit take is that? Seems like the only clown here is you
You see how their username ends in Lemmy.ml? That entire instance is full of trolls and pro Russia/anti US bots. Blocking and ignoring is the universal suggestion, otherwise you're gonna have a bad time. There are quite a few on non-Lemmy.ml instances, but blocking that is a good start. Feel however you want about the US, but they legit hate individual Americans and support the Russian state. The Russian state is corrupted (just like the US now, thanks Russia!), but individuals from either country do not represent the state as a whole, and the amount of Putin simping they do is egregious.
Thanks good to know as a new user! Much appreciated
Yea, no worries! The app I use highlights new users, so I figured you hadn't run into enough .ml trolls to make the connection yet. Hope you have a great Lemmy experience going forward!
Yes isolate yourself in an echo chamber then cry when reality beats upon your front door.
You see that loser-name ends in reddat. It means they think they know stuff because they gazed across some shallow surface of knowledge and wisdom.
Bot can't spell.
Ok sliver dragon such fury you process I scared of being called a bot.
You trolling, or you don't understand how time works ?
Time is a flat circle. You're doomed to repeat history, and im doomed to watch you.
What a shit take.
Found elons account
What a clever and insightful comment. I'm very proud of you and all the hard work you did it must have really been a struggle. How did you decide what thought you wanted to copy and repeat.
“ A big salty tear. You get what you deserve 🤡” ok Mr copy paste over here waxing poetic. Stop defending a shit take and do some introspection
You big mad bro 😂
That you had a bad take and got flamed then continued to defend it while adding a ton of emojis? I don’t think anyone here is mad, kinda sad that you’d double down on a shit take that indicates you’re either young or extremely naive.
I guess now I know im just talking to a troll from a troll quarantine zone though. Enjoy your basement and late night depression wank. I’m sure you’ll solve it by talking out of your ass more on the internet. You want to be a Collin Robinson and drain energy from everyone but you just end up looking like a sad dweeb and embarrassing yourself
Yo that romance novel you wrote for me is sweet but tldr.
I understand the sentiment, man. I'm mad too. But being vindictive to perceived enemies is exactly how we got in this mess.
WTAF?
If you wanted to get blocked, you could have just asked instead of being a gigantic cunt. Better all around.
