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!

You misunderstand. Party leadership is downright eager to alienate the electorate again like they did in 2016.
And they're doing a fantastic job.
The guy accusing me of posting obsessively- posts twice as much as I do, and only anti-Biden rhetoric.
That should tel you all you need to know.
Also, if someone is telling you to block an account they themselves won’t block, that should also tell you something.
Nope. This account moved from an instance that had far left biased admins that protected tankie shills and removed posts/comments made by those that disagreed with their propaganda.
But let’s not let this get in the way of your attempt to silence those that call out your right-wing bullshit.
they're not trying to silence you. they're encouraging people to ignore you. an attempt to silence would be like reporting every comment as "misinformation" or something.
A right wing troll is encouraging people to block me. Wait… So, basically… all right wing trolls will no longer be able to waste my time with their bad-faith leftist propaganda?
Please! Block me!
i don't think they're right wing or a troll.
Because they’re you. Why would you?
you're making baseless (and false) accusations now.
You’re free to block me.
“Need help finding the button?”
I heard that from… someone before. Liked it. Decided it’d be nice to use that on someone else someday.
i thought i was already blocked: https://lemm.ee/comment/9631610
Why bother, you’ll just harass with one of your many alts. Also- I cleared my block list as I believe it’s mine and everyone’s civic duty to call out right-wing propaganda.
