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!

Date who you want. Do what you think is best. But it's weird that abortion is so often posited as a gender question when race is a better predictor. If white women stop voting for Republicans all of our rights would be safe.

Talk to your mothers and aunts, the rest of us can't outvote them yet.

From what i heard, what if you just dont date assholes? You dont have to stop dating entirely just dont date a man heil hitlering or some shit. Date people whos views align with yours whether i agree with them or no.

They are intolerant assholes themselves, so I don't think the date is the issue.
They complain that men do not support women rights. But they themselves discriminate against LGBT.
So there you are, double standard assholes, will always have an asshole with them on a date, but the asshole is themself.

While I enjoy sex it is often an inverse proportion to the effort.

White liberals women are going volcel until the Conservatives change their ways!

I'm going ahead and this dismissing this out of hand. It's not a thing outside of there curiosity articles and niche circles that have sort of read a bout the SCUM-manifest and so on.

I've been living that lifestyle for the past *checks notes* all my life. I'll give them about 2 years before they want to off themselves.

I volunteered for this lifestyle after trying dating post divorce. I'd rather cut a leg off and swim with sharks than date nowadays. And bringing CHILDREN into this meat grinder? Hard pass.

Hardcore Trump fans will still fuck and procreate. I don't consider sex abstinence a viable long-term strategy.
