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!

Most dissidents have been banned from .world to keep the echo chamber functional.
you've got .ml and others, that's where all the "dissidents" hang out. Must be hard to be a dissident when everyone agrees with you.
.ml has some trigger happy mods but nobody gets banned for criticizing the democratic party for supporting a genocide.
You can tell how much of an echo chamber it is here since there are no weapons restrictions for Trump to lift. Because the democrats did not place any.
Oh you don't get banned for going along with Russian propaganda? Wow, weird huh.
But then you do get banned for pointing out Russian propaganda.
Here.
That's @davel@lemmy.ml pushing against BlueSky, spreading his usual bullshit links about "Nazis". He thinks Ukraine is filled with Nazis and Russia was right to invade it. Now "BlueSky is filled with Nazis"
It doesn't take a genius to suss this out, but that's what the poorly educated Russians don't get. Or they rely on Americans being equally stupid, which is a good bet, honestly.
But for people with a normal amount of media/political literacy? Lol.
Everything I'm told by the state media is good and correct and everything would be fine if it weren't for the underhanded secret ~~jews~~ russians feeding dissent
Hey! Why am I being banned for following a user around and making personal attacks at them??
YOU'RE ALL JUST A BUNCH OF J-I MEAN RUSSIANS
You guys genuinely can't argue like adults, it's very irritating.
I've not followed anyone around nor have I made any personal attacks. Is "are you pro-Russian?" a personal attack in your opinion? I guess we'll find out.
Are you pro-Russian?
Do you believe Russia has broken international law with their illegal war of aggression by invading Ukraine in February 2022?
(And I know you won't answer any of that, you'll just continue with the garbage quality propaganda. Which is to say utilising shitty rhetoric to push your agenda. Ie the childish nature of your wannabe argument. I wish you could see just how ridiculous it is, but you're genuinely not able to. If you were, you'd be too ashamed to write that, lol.)
Stimulus: "You're falling into the exact antisemetic tropes The Protocols of the Elders of Zion inspired in the late 18th century. You're just replacing 'Russian' for 'Jew' for your paranoid delusions that act as thought stoppers for any dissent"
Response: "YOU SOUND LIKE A SECRET JEW"
See before; "I know you won't answer any of that."
If only you saw how childish your rhetoric is. I can actually show you. We'll have a whole conversation about it, and I'll teach you to use it better... after you reply to a simple yes or no question: Do you believe Russia has broken international law with their illegal war of aggression by invading Ukraine in February 2022?
True, anything vaguely pro Israel gets deleted and banned.
Wait, defending genocide is seen as a bad thing?
faints in bootlicker
Nuance and facts are seen as a bad thing.
