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!

Yet Joe Biden has sent billions in funding that has resulted in the killing of tens of thousands of semitic women & children by a antisemitic genocidal regime. Wouldn't that make the Biden/Harris administration more like Hitler than Trump?
First of all, Nazis aren't defined by killing or hating jews. It's just an "other" that they define. It doesn't matter what group they're part of. For example, Nazis also targeted blacks, gays, trans, and other groups that weren't part of the in-group. They just need an enemy. The enemy of Fascists is not jews by definition, and jews can be fascist.
Second, Trump has more thoroughly supported the Zionists than Biden. He moved the embassy to Jerusalem, at Israel's request despite the previous status-quo treating the city as neutral, and refusing to move the embassy there. He has also said Israel should "finish the job."
Third, I know you're just trying to troll, but we generally use anti-semetic to refer to anti-jewish. I know the game you were trying to play because I know Arabic is also a semetic language. However, most don't. Using that term to refer to Arabs/Muslims is misleading. Again, I know this was on purpose but I'm pointing it out for other readers who come across this. I recognize that it was by design and you won't change, as nice as that would be.
More specifically, "antisemitism" comes from the German Antisemitismus which was popularized as a more technical-sounding euphemism for Judenhass (Jew-hate). It never meant "antipathy towards Semitic-language speakers".
The people who proudly called themselves antisemites, and formed the Antisemiten-Liga (Antisemites League) did not target Arabs, Ethiopians, or other speakers of the Semitic language family; they targeted Jews.
Added full name for clarity.
