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!

Understand how policy works. We dumped biden over gaza, union busting, and literally being on the down slope mentally.
Every bit of support we withhold from harris makes the campaign that much more tenuous increasing the likelihood of either: her switching positions now, or giving our congress critters more leverage over declining her terrible policies later. If she loses as a result of these efforts we made no secret about what she'd need to change. Thats on her.
This is why the 'lesser evil' shit is nonsense. You can absolutely crater her support in safe states and still have her win. We've given the dunces plenty of hints the last few weeks what was up. Almost ever thread im in i mention the alternatives to the lesser evil nonsense.
Next time try to support your arab brothers and sisters instead of shitting on them like harris has done and this would have been less stressful for you. Maybe sit down and think about what you're seeing and instead of trying to demand people vote the same way you are demand your policy pigeon change their policy if you dont find whats being requested objectionable. No one wanted us to leave Israel defenseless we want her to stop shipping weapons until the destruction stops and real peace talks begin. The fact people like yourself fought harder against this than in getting harris to fix her nonsense position says more about all of you than us.
You're infuriating me because you know nothing about me. You have no idea the monetary support I've pledged to Palestine. It's not thousands or even hundreds but i don’t have very much and I've given what I can. I've spread the word about Palestine, Mossad, the IDF, regional complacency, debunking conspiracy theories about Hamas and the United Nations, all of it. You know nothing about me and yet because we've swapped a handful of words about American politics you think you do. That's why you're pissing me off, not because we're disagreeing on Kamala's campaign strategy but because you're completely full of yourself. Fuck you. May Kamala win and may the Palestinians some day know peace and prosperity in the land that's rightfully theirs but honestly fuck you.
