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!

I don’t want to be a party to any nazi hangouts. Not certain why that is difficult.
Is it easier to stop 5 nazis or 10 million?
It's not a nazi hangout. It's a space that nazis use to spread nazi propaganda. You leaving is contributing to their goals.
There is nothing you can argue that makes sense that leaving and ignoring is the correct approach.
If your garden gets weeds, do they go away if you go to another garden. No they grow until they take over both gardens. It's much easier to stop when you have 2sqft of weeds to deal with vs 200sqft
Twitter is 100% a Nazi hangout. I have no need to wade into that filth. Go for it. Have fun.
So you support nazis being able to communicate any lie or propaganda to the people in your life, uncontested. You're supportive of raising a whole new generation on only things that nazis see as issues?
I don't. The site should be shut down. I just refuse to hang out with them.
Again, you hang out with the Nazis. I'll pass.
That's fine. Nobody is forcing you too. But you can't tell me that collectively when we all do the same thing that it doesn't end up making the situation worse. We're walking away from a kitchen fire.
That is my point. People here have made a choice and avoid admitting the consequences
No, we are walking out of a building that is on fire. There is a difference.
No you're not. That's the point I'm trying to make. You just moved to another room. What goes on there will 100% still affect you. It'll show up with coworkers. It'll show up at family dinners. It'll show up next election cycle when they have much greater engagement and capture. They convinced you all to leave so they could burn everything down. You never left the building you just moved out of the room. My point is that was foolish. That's it. You're just delaying something that is easier to fight when it first crops up. We're being ignorant to that at a time when bring ignorant to this is costing us greatly.
Man, you don't need to keep flailing around. Hang out with he Nazis. You seem to have some sort of attachment to them and their safe spaces.
I don't fucking care at this point that you just want to argue. Have at it. Fucking useless comment like this is a waste of your time
I mean, cool. Have fun with your Nazi friends. I'm certain you will save twitter.
Nazi convinced you to fuck off and you did. Say whatever you want but enjoy the corner they put you in.
How did I fuck off again? Lol.
I thought you were going to hang out with your twitter and The_Donald friends again?
You sound like a big scary man. XD
