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!

Why troll? Was hoping for a good discussion about the merits of Marxist Leninism. I’m learning, and curious. But only met with hostility when inquiring. Seems reactionary.
What is trolling? Describe it in your own words. English isn't my first language, I'm from Bangladesh-stan.
I only speak Bangladesh-stany. So, please elaborate your ideas? Gracias, por favor, arbor, de la puerta?!
I just don’t understand why you have to be so intolerant. I’ve repeatedly tried in multiple threads to find out why liberals think tankies are an enemy. I’m not a tankie. But they‘ve treated me with kindness and answered my ignorant questions. Meanwhile, liberals and centrist minded people treat me with such hostility and disdain. Do you even know why you hate tankies? I’m not gonna stop learning just because some guy says “tankie bad.” If you wonder why people are turning to Marxist-Leninism, look in the mirror. You’re not giving them a reason not to turn into tankies.
Because you are a troll. You post lies and nonsense, then come to the comments of every thread and act a fool.
Which article do you mean? Sorry, I'm pretty dumb. Please explain your stance to me? What type of tankie are you referring to? I'm not smart enough to understand. Please elaborate. I'm a troll.
You're a cancer on society.
I genuinely want to learn about socialism/Marxist Leninism. And try to understand their arguments. But narrow minded people like you call them “tankies,” as if that’s an argument. It’s like saying Libtard, MAGAt, cuck or reeeee. It’s immature and unproductive.
Okay. Me too. Meet ya in the next thread where I'll explain to everyone what a troll you are. See ya soon
It’s important to have goals. I wish the best for you. Try love 💕 instead of hate when trolling. It’s challenging, but more rewarding.
