Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Can they make up their minds, believe in God, but don't listen to the pope. Riiiiiiiight. I would assume those events to be the wrath of God, if I were inclined to believe in such things.

As were locusts and frogs.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago

He actually might be sent by god, actually.

As a punishment or test, like the Flood in Noahs time, like the locusts in Egypt, like the demon sent to Lot.

My fists would love nothing more than to have 2 minutes with that thing he refers to as a face.

[–] Sunflier@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (1 children)

To clean his glasses for him? Or, to shove them up his ass?

[–] edgarde@piefed.social 7 points 22 hours ago

Don't threaten Miller with a good time.

[–] yesman@lemmy.world 38 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes, you can definitely trust the judgement and historical wisdom of a Jewish white supremacist.

[–] Captain_Patchy@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago

Sorry, when did the White Supremacists decide that Jews were white and when did they start accepting his directions?

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 12 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Steven Miller was sent by God in the same way God sent the locust plague and the rain of frogs.

[–] erusuoyera@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Steven Miller is what happens when you bury a dildo in the pet cemetery.

[–] NekoKoneko@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

This is perfect for a needlepoint kitchen hanging.

[–] ryper@lemmy.ca 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Is smiting a valid punishment for blasphemy? If "god" would smite some of these assholes I might just become a believer.

[–] Sunflier@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

No smiting. Just stoning.

[–] garbage_world@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago

I would like to see their argumentation.

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 12 points 1 day ago

Like, as a punishment?

In a biblical plague sort of way, perhaps

[–] mechoman444@lemmy.world 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Wait goon as in low tier henchmen?

Or goon as in like... Well you know...

[–] SpikesOtherDog@ani.social 1 points 21 hours ago

I was going to use the the porque no los dos meme, but if has a restraining order against Trump gooners.

[–] DMCMNFIBFFF@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's quite possible to review the events of the last decade—indeed perhaps the last 3 decades—and conclude that there are other explanations for Trump winning with a plurality (not majority) of the popular vote.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 6 points 22 hours ago

Our nation was cooked the day the SCOTUS ruled on Bush v Gore

[–] Stormy@thelemmy.club 5 points 1 day ago

Well, duh. They've been working to make that story for their holy war for the last decade. I thought we already knew this. They said he was basically the anticrist trying to set off Armageddon just a few months ago when they started attacking iran.

God did send Lucifer. To hell.
