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!

Preaching the choir dawg... I think most thinking plebs have arrived at a similar conclusion.
However masses too busy fighting culture wars and consuming propaganda... While elites enabled by boomers looting the treasury.
Couldn’t have said it better myself man. Although don’t discount the brain rot with my millennial generation. I meet a lot of millennials who vote just like the boomers do.
no doubt we got fair share of bootlickers with in Gen Y, however, this is natural as decent part of us benefits from the regime as is. they will get their inheritances and they get good jobs via class and nepotism systems. there is no way to make these people to come around with logic because common pleb logic does not apply to them.
if only working plebs could finally come around and realize that they are not temporally impoverished millionaires... pleb and elite... we are not the same lol
Seeing this exchange brings mixed emotions to my Gen X self.
ehh the Gen nobody wants to talk about haha
used to look to y'all when i was younger. most of my real education came from Gen X... well besides being abused by boomers.
However, in recent years, my experience with Gen X has been negative as they moved into mid/upper position and now turning around try to extract value from me as if they are the new boomers.
Then they get butt hurt when the answer is NO... you don't get a turn clown. This shit stops.
Good. I think too many in gen x just got crushed by being so devoid of agency, politically speaking, that they just gave up. It's been a struggle watching this country I was told to love and support unconditionally continuously spiral downward because the generation that preceeded me milked the system for all it was worth before stealing the same opportunities for social and economic advancement from future generations.
