politics
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!

Glad you could finally admit your only purpose here is to troll.
that's not what i said
It’s implied. You said you don’t bother reading for context… well, that’s what most mature people do when they discuss things with other adults.
Now I’m going to go ahead and end this discussion right here as I don’t want to be banned/reported for talking to you.
I explicitly said I did look back for context
how did you even find this thread, dozens of comments deep in a 48-hour old post?
The irony of you asking me how I found this thread considering the subject matter.
if the accusation is that I found it because I'm a troll... your participation would seemingly come under the same accusation.
Im done engaging with you. Walk away.
I hope so
Just
Block
Eachothers
Nothing good will come from arguing aimlessly in the comments. It always devolve into ad hominem and incivility between you two.
they claimed to have blocked me over a month ago.
You know, you can block them too, and.. not reply..
I am usually pretty good. I did lose it last night, after their consistent stalking and harassment.
they've started entering conversations just to talk shit on me. i can't believe any admin cares to host them.
