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!

When I was still watching that show, I was perplexed that Democrats would say that's the world Republicans want and Republicans would say that's the world Democrats want.
I'm firmly in the former camp and cannot for the life of me figure out how a conservative could agree with the latter.
It was just Democrats expressing their (accurate in this case) analysis. And Republicans projecting, as per usual.
Ah yes, democrats are widely known for their support of christofascism. Always out there forcing their religious beliefs on society, claiming America as a birthright theocracy.
Wow, haven't heard any cons making that claim, but I certainly believe they have.
I think it's much the same way they know something is deemed a bad thing and don't want to be called out for that thing, so they hilariously try to flip the script, all the while demonstrating they don't really understand the term and why it's problematic. See: racism and fascism. They claim Democrats are the real racists for....some inane reason (for supposedly "cancelling" some white man, for instance, or because they are seeing too many brown people on their screens, or...). Or that Democrats are the real fascists because...donnie is facing questions in court for his illegal activities, or because a xtian saw a rainbow flag somewhere, or....
I guess they heard normal Americans talking about how Handmaid's Tale is a rabid winger's wet dream, and just did a "no u" on it...
