Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Also nudding whos crawled out of the woodwork. And they have, but the bulk of their work is spamming only the news they want u to see.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

if they had said that it would be trivial to link.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol by sifting thru entire accounts and ignoring what i said about their shifting the public view towards where American adversaries want it? But u seem very keen on defending their entire post history... hmmm.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

if your claim that they want to convince one and all that the two candidates are the exact same were true, you wouldn't need to do any meaningful sifting.

it's not true, though. the only time you will find anyone talking about them being the same are people (in bad faith) accusing others of having that position.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Keep ignoring the rest of what i said. But im getting the same usual suspect coming from nowhere replying. Its all always the same.

"Theyre all the same" finally got pushback, and now yall pretend like that was never here to discredit anyone bringing it up. If it didnt exist, it wouldnt be brought up.

>Keep ignoring the rest of what i said.

your petulance doesn't make your wild accusations any more relevant.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

> If it didnt exist, it wouldnt be brought up.

people lie on the internet all the time.

>“Theyre all the same” finally got pushback,

are you going to provide evidence anyone said that?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Did u miss the 3001 "trolley problem" posts circulating a month ago?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

can you link what you're talking about?

I'll also point out that the trolley problem does distinguish between the two tracks. unless I miss one that didn't?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dude I post every day what the fuck are you talking about lol

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Dude i dont follow u what the fuck are you talking about lol

But i always see u crop up for moments like this when someone calls out lemmy shills

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep, he's one of the few accounts I recognize at this point. Same shit every time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

All these guys replying to me are. If u got to see my comment listing their names before it got pulled u could see if maybe u recognize those too. Highly recommend tagging them.

Eta: correction, might not have been that comment the automod msged me about.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They're the same candidate if you care about genocide and oil production lol. Pretty important things to a lot of people.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Agreed. One wants to let "stepping stone" Ukraine get genocided along with the queer folk in our own country while taking away our right to put who we want in power next time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Trump is objectively a worse candidate. That doesn't stop Biden from being a geriatric genocide enabler.

Maybe you guys shouldn't get a next time if your only 2 options are genocide.

Maybe none of it really matters anyway, because of the coming collapse.

As a citizen of the world, I am affected by American politics. Is this a foreign concept to you?

i don't think you understand how lemmy's vote system works.
