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!

Did you read the article? These dumb ass joes died in a training exercise by getting their vehicle stuck in the mud.
What do you think NATO troops do? They bomb brown people in Western Asia.
I swear to God you idiots are so excited to come up with the most idiotic "gotchas" that you don't even think about what is actually being talked about.
No one said they were actively bombing brown people. They were so stupid they died training to bomb brown people.
Says the person who is so giddy people they do not know died they're willing to pass judgement on the dead they've never met. You're a piece of shit.
They were on a training mission in Lithuania, to simulate fighting conditions in a country like Lithuania. Wtf are you even on about?
How the fuck is that training to bomb brown people?
Holy fuck you people are dense. Yeah dude. They were training to "protect us from terrorist and Russians" just like in the movies. That's exactly how the world works.
Remind me again what country we just recently bombed? Oh yeah, one of the poorest countries on the planet that spent the last decade being genocided by the US and it's allies. The only country in the world performing any military action to resist the genocide in Gaza.
But yeah. The US military "fights bad guys". I'm sure. Keep believing your delusions.
