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!

I believe she stated she is not going to make a response until after her tour finishes, to protect her fans.
Edit: Internet says the tour is set to conclude on December 8, 2024, in Vancouver (after the election).
ah ok that makes sense
desperately hoping deep down that she's charging the death star laser and as soon as the tour is over she fucking vaporizes the republican party for their hubris -_-
A quick google says the tour doesn't end till December, so after the election anyway, unfortunately.
That seems ridiculous to me. She's already being painted in a way that's political. By not responding when she so clearly has the agency to, she's simply refusing to disagree. That's going to be seen as agreement by many.
I think this shows her true colors. She can claim fan safety all she wants but if she has more concern for "fans" than she does the genuine safety for the future of our country, especially outright saying she won't make a statement until after the tour which isn't until after the election, it truly $how$ where $he is focu$ed
I think, especially after Jan 6, she's taking this as a powder keg situation because of how politicized she's become (against her will) and waiting to light the match until she's not putting her fans at risk by triggering some psychopath to bomb her concert
She already cancelled one show on the tour because of a plotted terror attack. I think at this point she doesn't want to upset the wack jobs any more and put fans lives at risk.
I don't think it's ridiculous. Concerts have been targets for terrorism before, and these people are insane.
People were ridiculing Jack Black for cancelling Tenacious D tour dates after (pretty fucking mild) remarks by Kyle Gass as if it was a PR stunt, when in reality it was probably for the safety of the fans. They 1000% got (likely very specific) death threats and threats of attack at their shows. They cancelled the tour because maga are domestic terrorists.
When does the tour finish?
December.
Internet says it is set to conclude on December 8, 2024, in Vancouver. So, after the election.
