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!

Lol. It's so ridiculous to hear a right wing nut accuse anybody else of living in an echo chamber. No matter how hard you try to pretend otherwise, nothing will change the fact that most people actively avoid getting talked in an echo chamber. Reasonable people aren't afraid to read the opposition viewpoint.
Your addiction to fear is not normal. It's bizarre and unhealthy, and no, other groups don't actively worship fear.
Your ignorance assumes any critique of shitlibs makes one a Republican?
The regular posts you make parroting Republican talking points makes you a Republican.
The first implies the second.
So everyone critical of Dems is a republican?
-1 reading comprehension over here
Please re-read what I wrote.
Oh, careful, they're gonna ask you to provide proof, and then they're gonna focus on a single detail that prooves how wrong your "lib" views are. Distraction complete, mission accomplished, that'll show you!!!
That's cute, Dems vote solely out of fear, certainly never put of conviction. You even have the echo chamber talking points down, but of course cognitive dissonance makes you think you have independent thought.
OMG, that's so ridiculously stupid. Progressives, who advocate social safety net policies, advocate for individual liberty and freedom...only try to enact policies to benefit underprivileged groups because...fear. Uh. Yeah, that's not bat shit crazy. Not at all. In fact, I dare you to go help people. Like, at all. I know you won't, cause we all know you're afraid of anybody who doesn't blindly agree with you.
Do you even think about what you're saying?! Good lord. Not a day passes without RepubliQans loudly proclaiming how dangerous this or that group is. But the people advocate those groups... Obviously they're afraid.
Hell, it's literally impossible to compile a list of everything you guys demand people fear, only because you'll never stop adding new items to the list.
Once again, only right wing nuts fear the idea of intentionally researching opposing view points (why is that again? Oh yeah, you're all openly afraid of the evil way the scary leftys will corrupt your brain). No matter how you scream and cry and act like a petulant child, that doesn't change the fact that everybody else will research opposing views. You're approach to "independent thought" and "research" are completely abnormal and make no sense.
But we're afraid. It's beyond any comprehension how stupid your argument sounds.
Edit: You know what, you're right. Republicans and Democrats all vote based on fear, but for different reasons. Republicans are afraid of minorities living their lives in peace. The idea of a minority not actively suffering terrifies them. Democrats? They're afraid of anybody being forced to live in misery.
There, happy? (It's a joke, get it? You don't even know what happiness is, so question is funny, right??)
Dems only support those issues on the surface, just below that they are Republicans, and just as fascist
Sure buddy.
Just like the republicans support women's right. Yes?
The difference is republicans will tell you they hate you to your face. Democrats will cozy up as an old friend while they stab you in the back. The world knows where they stand with republicans because they dont hide their intent, Democrats do
You are incorrect, rhey will tell you that they are a using you for your own good, make themselves the victims for the bad things they do to you, and gaslight you because you are being mean to them. But never tell you openly that they hate you.
Yes tell us more dear daddy about the party that fears, immigration, black people, brown people, inclusion, drag queens, abortion, women in general, CRT, regulations, unions, wokeness, and books -- wait are we talking about the Dems?
Your ignorance assumes I'm republican. Leftists can't stand either of you
You know me? Who are you?
That is ironic, after all the republican party never convict people doing crimes, just look at the gop or, speaking of echo chambers and fanatism the traitor that they want to be president again so he can do more traitorous things.
He got through the font door once.
