politics
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!

I'm a new migrant from reddit. Are most of the posts on this politics community gonna be from 'lgbtqnation.com'? Is this just another r/politics echo chamber that I should stay clear from?
Do you and your fellow paste eaters need a safe space so that you can openly talk about genociding trans people?
Cause Twitter’s still open for business, and has a heavy right-wing slant (as with most social networks)
I said r/politics is an echo chamber filled with heavily bias sources and automatically I'm a paste eater that loves trans genocide? Come on, man.
You know there's people in between 'WE NEED TO FORCE EVERYONE TO ACCEPT EVERYONES FEELINGS' and 'LETS GO BRANDON KILL THE COMMI'S AND LETS INVADE THE CAPITOL'
Right?
Yeah, you are coming across as a paste eater, honestly. Nobody’s upset because of “feelings”. I’m upset because a bunch of worthless lowlife paste eaters are conspiring to make my fucking health care illegal. I have every right to be furious about that, and when chuds like you rock up to one of these threads to signal your hatred, I won’t HESITATE to tell you to crawl back into your filthy hole.
Who's doing this? Can you provide any source for people in the United States trying to make health care illegal?
If I wanted to get my foot amputated for funsies,are my health care 'rights' being taken away if a doctor doesn't do it, or insurance doesn't pay for it?
Ok so being trans is “for funsies”?
If there was any doubt you’re a total chud, that comment erased it.
Did you miss Dobbs, or something? Man, you really only just crawled out from under that rock, huh. Last reply, since you don’t seem super capable of digesting new information (must be all that glue you love to chew):
