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 don't get it.
There's so many negative things you can say about Musk, yet you punch at his happy dance? This is low and pathetic.
You mean the idiotic cavorting of a dipshit who thinks he’s being handed the power to write regulations for his own companies and fuck over the workers who actually produce the value?
As soon as Kamala said in the debate that Trump can be entirely coerced with flattery and fawning, I picture Elon watching that and jumping up shouting EUREKA!
Yes, thats what we should talk about. Attack him for his abuse of power and workers. Not his dance.
My guy, that's literally exactly what Walz says in his next sentence in the clip. We can and should make fun of both.
The second discredits you
Hey, dude, you're acting like a dipshit right now.
Knowing how you navigate credibility in the media (aka having information literacy) does not make you a dipshit
Yeah, how was that working out for you until they started turning up the heat? How was "when they go low, we go high" doing, in terms of actual election results?
If skip out of joy that fascists are clapping for you - literally get fucked.
"Happy dance" at other people's expense.
The dude claims the Democrats want to end democratic elections, despite Trunk's literal attempts to overturn a free and fair election, last time, and this time by planting loyalist governors he hopes won't certify a Democratic win.
He's jumping for joy on stage because what he sees is the freedom for himself to do whatever the fuck he wants without being regulated, and you even be given a role in government where he gets to make his own rules.
Dipshit is a much more relatable summary I think.
Get fucked, dipshit.
if you don't understand it, you're not in a position to judge it.
Yeah, honestly it was cringy, but its also cringy make fun of people for being cringy
Nah. Fascists are fair game.
Nah, bullying is bullying, regardless of if I think someone is wrong, so wrong that their ideas are harmful to people.
