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!

This is all the same shit they said in 2016.
You are a stupid for falling into the same trap 7 years later.
The game is rigged. There are no good candidates. Stop voting for them.
You're telling me how to change the system because you know for a fact that the dems are worthless. Lmao.
I don't even know what to say to such stupidity.
If so, "they" were right then, as Trump openly refused to concede power when he lost, and lied so much that his cultists rose up and attacked the capitol in an attempt to overturn an election. It was an attempted coup.
I agree the game is rigged. However, the problem is that you're short-sighted and don't understand how changes like this happen. They don't happen from the top-down, but the bottom up. You're yelling into the void if you think "I'm not voting for one of the two parties!" does anything at all.
Yes, by saying "if you want to change the system" I was clearly saying the dems are worthless. You're a true genius. You must be doing quite well in life.
No they weren't. I voted blue. Biden got elected, and then he supplied the ongoing genocide. That is not a win. That is just the same abhorrent outcome that is completely unacceptable.
I would say the same thing about you. You are the one who is insisting we continue to use the bandaid, aka voting for the lesser.
