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!

honest question, are you guys making any headway outside of hexbear and lemmygrad? i mean i'm sure everyone loves you in your safe space, but you have to know your "vote josevlad marxtalin 2024!!!" stance is pretty laughable out in the world
You can't .ml Biden committing Genocide away no matter how hard you try.
So, serious question: Do you only step up to defend other countries, or are the people in the U.S., where I assume you live, also on the agenda for the evening? Cause yeah, Genocide is pretty shit. Evil even.
What about the black communities?
Homeless?
Native American?
Disabled?
Veterans?
Children?
And the larger issue of fucking fascism that leads to precisely what you're so stuck yelling about blindly?
Here's what I think: Most of you are parrots. Actual sentient wagons transformed into people. Many of you don't have many details, you kneejerk on issues that cannot be approached from any other angle than "Yeah, of course I agree" and challenge everyone who doesn't immediately bow with "YOU SUPPORT GENOCIDE?!" as if you're the seagulls from Finding Nemo. Now maybe I'm wrong. Maybe YOU stand more often. If so, why stand with the crowd who will move on when the next big thing happens?
Never, EVER, remove support for the greater good when the greater evil guarantees more suffering. Otherwise all you're doing is becoming a part of the problem.
Of course i do. Which is why I will never support someone complicit in Genocide. Unlike the people enabling Fascism.
Your track record seems to have zero criticism of Republicans, when we know Trump would be far worse in supporting Israeli warcrimes. Just this once, can you come out and say that Trump would actually be worse for the one topic you ever seem to discuss?
Your track record seems to be making shit up and hoping nobody will ever fact check it.
Your track record seems to be personal attacks whenever someone asks you to provide substantial proof that can be fact checked and cross-referenced. You'll submit articles that agree specifically with your take and call anyone who challenges it with information liars or claim they don't know what they're talking about. You don't challenge people with logic, you challenge them with emotion, and chances are you're angry because it feels as if everyone else is wrong and no one listens.
Man, that must be stressful.
Are you trying to reach peak irony?
Renoved, see the new civility rule.
I want you to think loooong and hard about what you just said. Really consider it.
You can look at their history and see that since October they've basically commented or posted about anything else. It's several times a day they are canvassing for "Palestine" ie. Trump.

Very stoic in your support for Genocide I see. So cool and manly.
calling me pro-genocide doesn't make it so. no matter how hard you try.
So you don't support Joe Biden who is complicit in Genocide?
lol biden's not running dude. but yes, i was going to vote for him.
and no, you're not going to get me to concede that i "support genocide." ever. we CAN condemn some of an individual's actions while still voting for them, because that's the best (if not ONLY) path to progress
are you this exhausting in real life? does it actually get you anywhere? because it's not working here.
Genocide is where people with morals draw a red line but i guess Bidens 'red lines' match his voters.
LOL dude in 20+ comments of you saying gEnOcIdEJOe!!!!!! UrAgEnoCiDeR!!!! you haven't offered a name of a single candidate whom everyone should be supporting instead OR suggested a single course of action that everyone should be taking to make progress on the problem
i'm honestly glad you haven't been deleted for trolling, because this has been hilarious. tell your comrades you've completed your mission. no one in here is voting for joe
LOL
20+ comments of people openly supporting Genocide
nope lol maybe you'll be right the next 50 times you say it LOL
Ah so you retract all your statements about Biden and replace them with warnings about Trump being far worse?
Because unless you do these two things, your supposed support for Palestine rings fully hollow.
Thanks person consistently defending israel around Lemmy. You sure care about Palestinians.
Being dishonest is kind of your thing. That and obsessively smearing unrelated people for crimes they did not commit.
Projection is an art.
Right, yeah I have EVER defended Israel. Not just one time, but many times.
Oh wait, I never have, not once, and never would have a single shred of fucking motivation to ever do that. But sure, you're absolutely not lying.
So given that you're lying about that, why would anyone trust a single fucking thing you ever say?
You constantly defend them. You defend the people who support them, and you attack anyone who tries to stand up for Palestinians. I get that the choice between genocidal maniacs and racist religious nutjobs confuses you, but that's because the choice itself is a sham. You don't have to pick a side and pretend that they are always right. That's how they got you into this mess. You can have your own thoughts and ideas that don't fit into perfect or perfect blue. I must say, despite your vast ignorance, it is great that you are at least willing to talk with people who disagree with you and at such a young age, too. Certainly keep it up.
I know English isn't your first language but you do know what defend means.
Ah, I see that we've dropped the charade that you're not advocating for voting patterns that help Trump.
Your second sentence doesn't make any sense in this context.
Are you still doing that conspiracy thing where you think anyone who doesn't think exactly like you has to be hired by the Kremlin? Guess what? Not everyone is going to share your opinions in this life.
I've probably seen 2-3 users per day that seem likely Russian trolls out of hundreds of comments I read. You're by far the most suspicious yet. Leave me the fuck alone. I literally don't care about you in any way other than to warn others what you are. At this point it would be weird if you're not paid to write these fucking lies. Go the fuck away.
Well, now that I see you didn't even know that biden is supplying the bombs to Israel, that really changes things. You must just have some single issue you care about, and that caused you to side with biden no matter what. It's a pretty childish take on politics, but as you've repeatedly demonstrated with your affinity for conspiracy theories that you are almost certainly a child, so it really does fit.
At least delete your comment history or create another alt account. Everyone can check it and see you are lying.
I welcome anyone to point to a single comment where I ever once "defended Israel". Go ahead, one time. One comment. Do it.
Edit: notice they dodged this request. Should be easy if I'm constantly doing that right?
Is this your only shtick? You've done this like 5 times already.
.... I would say you're confusing me with someone else, but that would imply you're honest.
Hmm but Extra Militant Joffrey can lay the actions of Israel all at the feet of the POTUS as though he were directly responsible, even though a second grader would easily understand that makes no sense.
Stop pretending that decades of financial support are new. They aren't. We all know that, and your canvassing just makes you look like a liar.
