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!

Dudes at the UFC right now
you saw how the crowd was cheering him on? and how the coverage kept on going back to him?
i never felt so disgusted at that organization as I did yesterday. i already knew of the infatuation between dana white and himself, but the rest of the cronies swooning around him, kissing his ass, made me rethink how much i really want to be a fan of this organization going forward.
It's always been my personal impression that MMA and UFC was full of the douchiest douches in doucheville. Things like this only seem to confirm it. I don't begrudge people from watching wrestling etc. But usually with them it's at least all just an act.
It's the repeated brain trauma and testosterone abuse.
lol you're not wrong..
the fighters that got me into the UFC were the likes of anderson silva and lyoto machida.. i don't know if you know who those are, but just picture fighters that promote humility and respect, and are just bad ass at fighting.
the instagram video in this article features the 2 main event fighters in the first ufc event i watched.. that fight was several years ago.. now they're hanging out in a living room watching sentimental videos together 😂
