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!

A boomer thinks their anecdotal experience is indicative of anything beyond their own experience? Shocking.
/s
Suddenly so many of their comments make sense
Yeah, he's the classic boomer model of "my point is whatever makes me correct at this immediate moment". Check his comment history for a laugh, he gives people grief for doing the same things he's doing here. No self awareness or integrity whatsoever.
I wonder if they will ever accept that israel constantly lies and shouldn't ever be trusted without extensive investigation.
At least I had the experience in several places and that is more than the person making the assertion. Also, the media covered events of the day, so the observation is not just solely mine.
I don't think you understand what anecdotal evidence means. One person seeing something repeatedly is still anecdotal and of similarly little value when making statements about broader trends.
You didn't link or even reference this media coverage that specifically supports your assertion so yes, for your comment and even this one, the observation is still solely yours. We're not mind readers, we don't know what you're not telling us and, in case you ask, no, we're not going to look it up for you. If you don't provide evidence, people online generally assume you're making it up, and rightfully so.
I understand what you are saying, I just discount its importance. Plus, you started by calling me a name and now you attempt to talk down to me. Bet you're fun at parties too.
That's a lot of deflection when you could have just said "I am unable to address anything you wrote" and saved so much time.
OK. I neither will accept or care about anything you wrote.
What's funny is how you call someone a coward elsewhere for doing the same. I guess it takes one to know one.
Since I don't care what you said, I also don't care what you say. If you want to check elsewhere, it's up to you. Otherwise, you're talking to the wind my friend. Call it some names.
So, another one with no valid point.
Nobody is running from someone like you. But, you don't have a pointt other than? Nothing to respond to.
Deflect from what? You still have no point. You simply call names and have no substance. Very shallow.
You need to read the whole thing to put it in context. You have no idea what my criteria is. I haven't called you a name, though the same can't be said of you. You bring nothing new, but might as well be the same person. Try something original. Make a point. Don't repeat ad nauseum. I know you can do it.
Can you?
All hope is gone. Still nothing there.
This comment thread was a wild ride. I've never seen anyone cope this hard before. You know it's not a competition, right?
Oh great a stalker
Listen, your BS really means nothing to me. You can repeat the same stuff again and again and it will still mean nothing because it has no substance. So go enjoy life and leave me alone. I'm not your type.
ROFLMAO
