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!

DARE introduced my entire class to drugs and their various wondrous effects. Learned way more from DARE than anywhere else at the time. And that was in a public school in a southern border state.
oh we had that in canada too. I got the shittiest ruler known to man from that. it was made of kinda hard foam and the scale didn't line up with my metal ruler
I remember some kids treating it like a bucket list.
In light of this comment, I support Congresses efforts to keep kids off communism.
Now excuse me while I smoke a bowl.
Sounds like something that would be really hard to enforce once they get rid of the department of education.
Put a "victims of capitalism" monument next to it.
These motherfuckers will do anything but help the American people...
This is three card monte for the rubes - get them worried about finding the lady (Communists) while the elites are busily stealing all the money, all their rights, and making their lives absolutely miserable.
They gonna teach about Blue Cross/Blue Shield wanting to send us back to the 19th century and perform surgery without anesthesia?
Because that is worse than a theoretical economic system characterized by the collective ownership of property and by the organization of labor for the common advantage of all members in my book.
I tells you wut.
"dirty commies forced people into poverty and famine!" doesn't really sound so different when people can't afford homes or food under capitalism
I suspect there is a reason why the fascists call everyone to the left of them a "Communist" and talk about murdering them, etc...
