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!

Wonder how he’d feel about being told the same thing, but because of his skin color.
Some people are quite dense.
Dudes a textbook "pharisee" christian. Just look at the "personal life" portion of his wiki.
Anyone who gets their political philosophy from Rush Limbaugh is a dipshit who wants to be lied to or a grifter.
The very same Rush Limbaugh who denied smoking causes cancer and who died of lung cancer caused by smoking.
Cancer still sucks ass, but sometimes? Sometimes it's ok.
"I read Rush Limbaugh's book and discovered that I was in fact Uncle Ruckus!"
No relation!

This person, specifically. Been following this twit for some time. I’m sure his mother loves him. I guess.
The sad thing is that his right to use the bathroom is protected.
However, there is absolutely nothing saying we can't accuse him of being a transwoman and denying him the bathroom.

I often think about this, but I think it sends the wrong message — that your gender is a privilege you can lose, and other people can willingly respect or not. As much as I hate these people, I don’t wanna detract from the trans community’s comfort zone if that makes sense. Weaponizing pronouns and gendered language only stoops to the low low level of right wingers
Let's not treat being trans as an insult.
It's only an insult to them.
