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!

Remember these same assholes that started this shit in the 90's about the "Gay Agenda" converting all the children? According to that very same fear mongering, we're all supposed to be gay by now, cuz that's how that works...

It couldn’t be that they were wrong right?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yes, they were wrong. There was no "Gay Agenda" trying to convert people to being gay. That kind of dumb activity is apparently only meant for the religious nutjobs trying to turn people straight, which was and is a real thing that happens.

If you think Trump's Agenda 47 is scary, take a look at Trump's Rule 34.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago

If you think Trump's Rule 34 is scary, take a look at Trump's Order 66.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I know what this is but I’m still kind of curious to look. But I’ll never unsee goatse or tub girl so I’ll refrain. There is only so much eyebleach.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Believe me, it exists.

A lot of it is Biden x Trump or Trump x Biden too.

[–] [email protected] 57 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Don't worry, when people start catching up to this one, they will downplay it and start pushing Order 66.

I want off Mr Bone's Wild Ride!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Yes, you’d know this, too, if you’ve done any research on Rule 34.

[–] the_real_monte 6 points 4 months ago

No, no, no. Just searching "rule 34" won't give you any credible results, you have to include at least one politician's name in the search.

On schools:

Safe, Secure, and Drug-Free, by "immediate expulsion for any student who harms a teacher or another student." This includes sending the "out-of-control troublemakers OUT of the classroom and INTO reform schools and corrections facilities,"

Yikes. Start rounding em up and locking them away, probably as free labor, while they're young.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

There's no need for the "probably".

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Can we just call it Order 66 and be done with it?
