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!

It’s not even an issue for her.
ANITA HILL VOTED FOR BIDEN.
But for you? I’m sure Biden also stubbed your toe.
some people don't know what is in their own interest.
So the sore-loser wannabe dictator is the answer? We are between a rock and a fascist place. I vote rock.
from my perspective it's two fascists. i'm not voting for either of them.
So young and naive. Unfortunately your opportunity to influence the process was in the primary.
you do t know anything about my identity, and I'm not naive at all: I know what fascism is. its capitulating to the military industrial complex and jailing or killing anyone who threatens the states power.
he's not trying to do the opposite, he's trying to keep himself in power.
And yet you accuse Anita Hill, someone you know nothing about, that she's voting against her own interests and didn't know what she wants.
The hypocrisy and stupidity is strong with this one.
I'm saying she may not know. it's not an accusation.
Your identity is apparent in your naivety.
Good job kiddo. What other words have you looked up today?
your condescension is inappropriate
Wah.
You not understanding how the election works is inappropriate.
the wise man bowed his head solemnly and spoke: "theres actually zero difference between good & bad things. you imbecile. you fucking moron"
that's not what anyone here said
And what, right now, is in our own interest?
I don't presume to know. I am only saying we can't assume anyone is actually acting in their own rational self interest since we know people so often do not. Anita Hill is no exception.
I'm sure I don't need to point out the irony here, right?
I do want to point out that if no one can be trusted to act in their own self-interest, who then should act on their behalf?
you don't seem to be very good at handling nuance, and i don't feel qualified to help you understand this.
