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!

The right thinks the left is going to force their kids to get sex changes, the center and left see the right as wanting to end voting rights
It's less of "see the right" and more of "has observed the right". We just had Moore v. Harper which had republicans pushing the independent state legislature theory where they argued state legislatures had sole authority to decide how elections are conducted and could change the rules however they wanted. Even if it meant disenfranchising voters. Thankfully SCOTUS shot it down.
Sorry if I wasn’t clear. By see I meant literally see it happen before their eyes. See=observe
Nah, you're cool. A little bit of a fail on my part. I'm hyped up on caffeine and see the change in your sentence from "thinks" to "see".
Meanwhile the actual left is largely ignored.
Right view of Left: satanist groomers
Right view of Center: sheeple
Right view of Right: "you're white enough, you can date my daughter if I can date yours"
Center view of Left: unionized HR professionals with blue hair
Center view of Center: ordinary chill folks
Center view of Right: scary uncles and/or scary incels
Left view of Left: splitters!
Left view of Center: sheeple
Left view of Right: "you realize y'all are actual fucking Nazi pedos, yeah?"
As a center person, this is how I feel as well.
They really are Nazi pedos, though.
Yeah, but the alternative is working with the union instead of against it, so...
Lmao nailed it
Exactly. Talking heads on Fox or the legion of alpha male/libtards destroyed podcasts will bitch and moan endlessly about problems that only exist in their own vile imaginations, while everyone else is scrambling (or slowly shuffling in the neoliberal grandpa section of the Democratic Party's leadership) to fix everything those manchildren keep breaking whenever they're given a nickel from a lobbyist.
