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 resisted calling it fascism until it was too late and people were dying at the hands of monsters."
Get fucked. It was fascism when it was George Floyd and it's fascism now. It's been a fascism white people were willing to ignore because it didn't impact them directly for fucking decades, if not a hundred years or more.
Great job joining us in reality.
When was the US not fascism? Serious question.
Yeah, this guy can fuck right off.
Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.
Maybe he's been in opposition of using the term because he's fucking fascist-lite himself. Fascist with half the calories.
Calling liberals fascists is literally overusing the term to the point of meaninglessness.
Fascists are real and they're here, and they hate liberals and liberals hate them too. Calling liberals fascists is not going to help the situation.
And if you're going around making liberals bleed because you disagree with them, then you might wanna look in a mirror because you might be a fascist.
The phase comes from the original Black Panther Party.
Doesn't change anything I said
Just giving some historical context.
Do they hate fascists? They seem to be quite accommodating what with the slow rolling of justice for any infractions and the weakest of resistance to funding any 'security' concerns.
But no, calling them fascist wont help.
You seem to be confusing the democratic party leadership and a handful of traitors with every liberal.
How long until we stop complaining about fascism and actively talk about doing something about it—publicly?
Talk about it in the back of coffee shops, not publicly. That’s how you get the Feds on you.
the feds already have you if you post on lemmy, blusky, or mastodon
And if you talk about what should actually happen then the Secret Service knocks on your door. Still best to do it in private.
Lmfao. Worry about yourself.
Only worrying about oneself is part of the reason we are in this mess. I am actually worried for a lot of people currently.
I’m worried about the entire country. You seem to want to let fascism happen. Which is why you try to crush anyone talking out against the government lmfao.
You're a fucking idiot. If everyone willing to take direct action talks about it publicly, then before long there won't be anyone left to take action.
The French Resistance didn't exactly stand in the middle of a public square telling everyone "We're the french resistance."
You aren’t doing that tho?
You support Trump.
10 day old account trying so hard to ragebait, regularly inciting violence, but accusing someone else of supporting rump.
That's fucking rich, lol. Blocked.
Good. Lol
Incorrect.
Say you want Trump dead. Say you think he should be assassinated. Use the words.
Okay this is some straight up fedposting. Everyone should tag this person as a fed and treat them as such.
Fuck off feddie. No one wants you here.
Say it, magat
Bruh. Fuckin chill out. Go drink some water and lie down.
You love Trump. That’s why you shut down dissent.
I’m shutting down obvious feds. Cause I don’t like feds.
Lmfao, you’re such an idiot. You’re shutting me down because you love Trump and you don’t want anyone fighting the government because you enjoy where the country is going.
🤨
So, you support Trump then. Got it.
Lmao
