Rules:

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.

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.

No intelligent person should vote for a party supporting a genocide either. Israel government is finishing the job already.

Ok. But either Harris or Trump WILL be our next president with how fucked up our election system is.

Who would you rather fight on this? A run of the mill democrat, or a literal nazi? We’re choosing our opponent, it’s the only choice we get.

Don't support any of them and use your energies somewhere else, you said yourself that the system is fucked up

Okay black pill bro. When you grow up and understand how things actually work, let us know.

Maybe those of us who are actively trying (while also understanding how our choices work) will acquire Ranked Choice voting before you become mature enough to join in on this non-black-or-white conversation.

Advocating for the government and ruling parties is actively trying to empower them even more.

Sure. And then trump wins and i completely lose my reproductive rights and my trans wife loses her healthcare.

There’s more at stake here.

There's indeed more at stake, there's an ongoing genocide in gaza where kids are being murdered daily. If you care about human rights that's even more reason for you to stop supporting the parties that for decades have fuck over these rights.
