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!

The piece of shit misogynist anti-choicer is also a transphobe, fucking shocker.. 🙄
So I've got everything set up that will allow me to have a child and I'm getting married. Women like me have existed longer than wither of us have been alive good sir
You are a man and you have been fooled into this belief by a segment of society. It will haunt you until you accept your actual nature which is what you were born as.
Fuck off bigot
Accept calling a woman a man isn't fucking polite you righteous cunt
To say your comment rises to the level of transphobia would be disingenous. You have absolutely no understanding of what it means to be trans and have no business calling anyone delusional.
Doubling down, comment after comment, earns you a ban. Read up on the topic before you come back.
"No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time."
You are well within your right to say "abortion is a sin" like the way you are within your right to say "idolatry is a sin".
The problem is that your argument for abortion being the same charge as murder doesn't amount to good legal reasoning. Not wanting people avoiding consequences for "debauchery" is just reason why YOU don't want abortion to be legal and NOT a good reason to make abortion a murder charge.
I never said anything about bodily autonomy. I stated that just because you think abortion is/can be "convenient" isn't grounds for declaring abortion the same as a murder.
Only if you ignore the bulk of medical science. You can spend five minutes on PubMed. You don’t seem particularly literate, but you might be able to use assistive tools to help you.
Okay, so basically anything that doesn’t confirm your preconfirmed notions you discard. It’s very easy to confirm whatever you want if you dismiss everything that disproves it out of hand :)
