Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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 “doing a genocide” thing comes off as incredibly immature and cringy as hell.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Oh but actually doing a genocide is fine. Just make sure you use proper English when talking about it?

While I appreciate your example of what a shitty strawman argument looks like, I never asked for one.

Either point out the location in my statement where I said “doing a genocide is fine” or admit you have nothing to offer the conversation, and are here to troll as usual.

You've plastered your opinion that you're willing to commit genocide for domestic political gain all over these boards.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Show me where or admit you’re a fucking troll. And I’m not talking about your batshit-insane interpretations of anything you disagree with being in support of genocide.

I’m asking you to prove I have said anything even remotely similar to what you’re accusing me of.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Here you go. I especially love the ones where you specifically threaten us with Trump or where you accuse us of "holding our votes hostage for one issue". That issue being... Genocide.

So… you have absolutely nothing to offer. Fantastic!

Thanks for playing, troll!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I think anyone looking at your post history will find more than enough evidence.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Right… so. Given that… anyone looking will see me responding to bad faith MAGA trolls and Russian bots that plague this site… like you.

If you can accuse me of shit- I can defend myself with accusations of my own.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Sure thing buddy. Maybe you should think about how many people you're willing to sacrifice for that political gain instead of accusing everyone who disagrees with you.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

I’ll do that when you finally come around to understanding that all of your anti-Biden bullshit is going to get even more Palestinians killed.

But you already know that.

Better yet- I’ll do that when you admit you don’t give a shit about it.

Oh, and you have the nerve to say: “accusing everyone that disagrees with you.”

Fucking hilarious coming from someone who thinks everyone here that’s not left of left is a gEnOciDe sUpPorTeR!

[–] [email protected] -1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The fact that you think even more will die says you don't understand the scale of what's going on.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The fact that you know what Trump will do there and don’t care, says your concern over what happens to them is fake.
