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!

North Americans on the website will try to convince me that Trump is the “bad guy” but somehow a president that supports a genocide (coined Genocide Joe) is the good guy in this equation.
North Americans will then convince me that choosing from only two parties for decades is somehow democracy.
Edit: This became like Reddit where saying “why the USA, a democracy, only have two parties in charge” is supporting Donald. I’m from Europe.
Not just is Trump not an exception, he was explicitly trying to move from the status quo towards a more Israel friendly stance.
Which this liar would praise if it were trump doing it. Gotta figure out a way to shit on Democrats no matter what they do, then if a Republican does an unsightly thing you praise/ignore/deny it, depending. Simple and effective somehow. People are just that stupid.
Joe Rogan syndrome
No one’s buying your shit.
The stupidest part of this argument is you're implying Trump wouldn't support Israel the same if not stronger.
It's a braindead implication, but here you are anyway. Simping for trump.
You realize Trump is much worse when it comes to supporting genocide, right? So yeah, the guy who supports genocide less is the good guy in this equation. Duh.
Doesn't even have to be a good guy to get my vote when the alternative is MAGA.
Ah yes, vote Republican instead, the party of peace.....
😂 How braindead do you have to be?
Ight then! So where are you from, tex? Tell us about the elevated levels of freedom and democracy you enjoy! Tell us about the ~~dictators~~ leaders you enjoy most! You definitely seem to break the mold of the stuffy, low/no-information conservative. What's your secret?
You do realize North America isn't just the northern states right? Texas is north America. Canada is north America. This guy is on a whole different continent, probably nowhere near Texas.
Egon wasn't from Texas either.
They both do. In fact, Trump much moreso.
Biden is (rightly) getting tons of shit for it because he's supposed to represent everyone to the left of American fascism, which doesn't include supporting genocide and otherwise propping up Israeli fascism.
Neither of them is the good guy. There's awful guy and many times worse guy.
Most Americans agree with you (and me) that it's undemocratic and should change. The people with the power overwhelmingly don't, though, since they're on average much richer, older and more authoritarian than the population in general.
Also, they don't want to jeopardize their legal bribes.
Trump doesn't just want genocide in Israel. He wants it in the US too.
I don't know if you have Putin's dick in your mouth or Jinpig's, but here's some tough love for you: fuck off, trollski.
Why would anyone try and convince you of anything? French citizens don’t get a vote in US elections. Your opinions on them don’t matter much.
News flash, most North American don’t give a shit about your opinion to want to change it, nor do they even have any wish to know where you are from.
Go fuck off to whatever shit tier part of the planet you are from.
It warms my heart that so many have told you too fuck off already. Get fucked.
