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!

Don't feed the troll
Not trolling, just sick of lying liberals who can't admit the people they support are monsters same as conservatives.
...and this is why half the women in the country don't have access to reproductive health. Enjoy your moral high horse.
Well considering leftists are the ones usually doing all the protesting and organizing to protect such things I don't really think you have anything to say to me. Don't patronize me when you do nothing tangible and vote for people who will take your rights away just the same if their donors want that. Maybe try supporting people who actually have platforms and policy, who have a record of supporting the things they say they do, and organizing with people who have character idk 😒
Side note: I find it hilarious when people say Democrats support democracy or women's rights
They have continually worked to disenfranchise third party voters and done nothing to protect women's rights. That is contrary to support of those things. 🤔
👍 thanks for convincing me how morally bankrupt I am! Keep it up! You're doing great! 👍
Stop being morally bankrupt. It's not that hard.
📣 You can do it.
Cool man! Great idea! I'll send you my ballot and you can tell me if there are any worthy candidates I can vote for! Will that be a good start? Or are we just not voting and just starting the revolution once Project 2025 is enacted by the Republicans? Can't wait to fight against the military in the coming revolution!
You've typed what amounts to a small novel in this thread, yet absolutely none of what you've typed is researched, clearly articulated, or supports your position. I get that you think you're a very smart person, but everything you've typed so far makes it sound like you're a toddler with a thesaurus. Why don't you go re-read this entire thread and if you feel like you can actually answer any of the questions people are asking, go ahead. If not, just stop talking, you're the only person who thinks you're saying something of intelligence and value here.
Then answer the question that was posed. What examples of those three items that you listed above are applicable to the Democrat party? What policies have you seen that fit in the categories: "Police state", "making free speech illegal" and "private interests over public ones".
