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!

Yet democratic party leadership still thinks the winning strategy is to move further to the right, in support of the oligarchs!
Do it in red states and I will be impressed.
"Oligarchy" is a meaningless term used by ineffective liberals who are afraid to oppose capitalism, imperialism, the state, etc.
In reality the entire system of the state is an oligarchy.
I hope Walz and Sanders + AOC are at least talking to each other. I get it if they’re keeping it behind the scenes for now, but I do hope they’re communicating. They’re broadcasting on roughly the same wavelength, hitting roughly the same points.
Walz and AOC did a stream together during campaign season, so there's probably a good chance they're staying in relatively close communication.
Fighting oligarchy includes refusing to support Democrats
Even the ones that fight oligarchy?
None of them are fighting the oligarchy. There are several speaking out against it right now but none have the power to fight it apparently...
One of the biggest problems with our system of government is that change has to be brought from inside. You have to use the machine to beat the machine, and it's very specifically designed that way to be as difficult as possible to change.
The duopoly has a whole is the oligarchy. There's nobody in the duopoly that is fighting the oligarchy, they are defending it
Even the ones on the Fight Oligarchy tour?
There is no fight oligarchy tour, what Bernie and AOC are doing is herding sheep for midterms and 2028.
well there you have it folks. empire in decay has no solutions but everything we're doing is wrong. they must be right since they're so edgy.
you children shouldn't be on the internet.
Sure, that sounds bad. But have you seen the height of the horse they are sitting on?
Everything liberals always do is wrong. And them not realizing it is most of the problem
more blame. no solutions. go away little lord edgy boy.
We have lots of solutions but liberals don't want to give up their chains.
Try naming one solution that is proactive, and not reactive.
He's apparently still trying to think of something.
The only solution is not supporting the oligarchy.
That's still reactive. You have no ideas.
The problem is liberals dont actually want ideas that stray from their narrative.
You've been asked multiple times for ideas, and won't give any. I'm not a fucking liberal, kiddo. Look at my name. I'm firmly left wing.
The problem is that you don't have any actual proactive ideas, or at least none that you're going to share.
Talking like a liberal is gonna get you labeled a liberal
All I have done is ask for actual ideas, and rebuffed your non-ideas, and you have literally said, "Asking for ideas means that you're a liberal." I want an idea such as, "Do X to further the cause," not "Don't do X to further the cause," and I have asked repeatedly for those ideas. You have repeatedly refused to provide for bullshit reasons, that do NOT apply to me. I'm not the other people in the thread, you coward.
You're an obstructionist, have refused to answer the basic question of "what are your ideas?" repeatedly all over this thread, and therefore, you are either a bot, or a shill for the right. We won't fall for your bullshit here in The People's Internet.
The problem is you have no proactive ideas. You just repeat the propaganda you've read and nothing else.
Do you enjoy being wrong about everything? It's hilarious
I've yet to be wrong about anything
Lmao ok kid
Is that why you let Trump win the election, cut aid to Ukraine, and propose to colonise Gaza?
Liberals elected Trump 2 times. But in their arrogant hubris their failures are always someone else's fault
I agree, the people who let Trump win are liberals, and they are desperate to blame someone else.
And this person specifically encouraged that, too.
Dems FAFO.
Yes, but you were part of the FA.
FA was Democrats
And you.
There was nothing for me to find out, I knew what was coming but liberals buried their heads in the sand in order to support deniers of genocide
I dare you to not say libs or liberals for 24 hours. I guarantee you can't process comments without saying those words.
Uh huh.
You FA. Now you're FO along with everyone else.
I didn't fuck around, everything turned out as I expected it would. It wasnt leftists demanding the people that got us here should stay in power.
