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!

What if both parties only have female candidates though
It is very, very much on-brand for establishment democrats to ignore the multitude of well-respected, socialist or left-leaning politicians across our country, as well as the mandate that shows just how much people want inspiring leaders who want to help people, and go all-in on Harris/Newsom 2028.
I'd stay out of public spaces if that happens tbvh.. everyone jokes about the byproducts of unkempt male rage, yet it has defined all of human existence. Susan Faludi has an awesome book on the subject called "Stiffed" that peels back the curtain on what happens to boys who aren't loved.
I can re-write that book. Boys who are not loved go to 4chan and fester until they are ready for politics
The book was written in the 90s before the internet was mainstream. Give it a read if you actually want some perspective on this cycle's version of the problem. Heck, you might even be around for the next cycle after that, too!
We have simultaneously underestimated the massive force that is male sexual insecurity and how it fuels movements, and also way overplayed the minority of foul shits who scream their hate into the void.
If a woman is elected president, there will be no end to raging lunatics online, but not any more than we have now, and there's not going to be any more or less real-world violence as a result. People generally fall in line with whatever tone our current "leader" sets.
Couldn't agree more! They have mommy issues and would probably settle in well after an adjustment period
