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!

Well then I’ll have the chicken

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Why these supposed tough guys are so enamored of a total priss like the dumpster is the real mystery.

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

This is the kinda shit that scares me. These nuckers are futs…

Y'all Qaeda,

Meal Team Six,

Gravy SEALs,

Vanilla ISIS,

Couch Gyros,

CoD Patriots,

~~Cracker~~ Cracka Barrel Rambos,

Pajama Ninjas,

and various other Ammo-sexuals...

Yep. Terrifying. Truly. 😱🫣

🤣🖕🏼🫡🤣

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Ammo sexuals is a new one for me. I like it.

You might not be scared but you don’t own a Golden Corral buffet. The damage they can do on the chocolate fountain alone will set you back thousands of dollars.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 week ago

Chocolate fountains as the aerated bacterial breeding spurts they are — especially at no-effort cesspools like said feed trough chains, et al — should've by all accounts killed off their target demographic decades ago... 😶‍🌫️

Howdy Arabia

[–] lettruthout@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Agreed. They're a threat, but not terrifying.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They're threatening like a clay pigeon is: stay up range/wind and avoid them in large groups. They shatter into useless pieces on their own, anyhow. Bob & weave, fellow readers & capable thinkers.

[–] stringere@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 days ago

Clay pigeons are fuckers! They don't even eat flies.

[–] just_another_person@lemmy.world 33 points 1 week ago (2 children)

These people are almost certainly under surveillance, and armed military are waiting for them to try something. It would be certain death if they tried this shit again.

[–] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yep! I saw about a week or two ago a post about Facebook letting them communicate with each other and I guarantee that every Alphabet branch involved in the nation's security is letting it happen to nail their asses to the wall when Harris wins.

[–] Tyfud@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago

That are not, unfortunately. They're covering their asses in case trump wins and wants retaliation.

[–] JustEnoughDucks@feddit.nl 8 points 1 week ago

Like how the traitor insurrectionists were that tried to overthrow the government? A lot of good that did lol.

Hopefully with biden in charge during the next attempted coup in a few months things will be handled instead of ignored.

Hopefully the “or death” part is some kind of koolaid cult thing.

[–] aramis87@fedia.io 11 points 1 week ago

It's why Trump switched his hat to Proud Boy colors.

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

More fodder willing to ruin their lives for that shitbird. Jesus, what a bunch of chucklefucks.
