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!

No. I do not accept this any longer. There are not "good christians" and "bad christians". There are christians and not christians. And christians are bad. Always have been. If you identify as a christian then these are your people.
This is fash logic. Not interested.
No it isn't. The Christians are the fash, dumbass. They have killed and burned millions upon millions both with their religion, their dogma, and they're absolute rejection of logic and reason. They are the fascist. They're the ones that need to be eliminated, and that is a matter of self-defense.
Fascism is built on a structure that includes using religion and fear as the basis for its atrocities. I'm getting really sick of you people defending the fascists.
You are a hypocrite.
No, I'm right, and history proves it.
This comic was posted elsewhere, and not only is it historically accurate, but plenty of American evangelicals still believe this bullshit. I know people who lost business because they were left-handed.
And you call me the fascist. Fuck, you people never learn.
Yeah, seriously! These people! Is it even fair to call them that? I mean, if you think nuance is important and are slow to criticize a group of billions, you're basically subhuman trash!
/s, in case anyone thinks I'm also ~~an idiot~~ a shitty, reactionary authoritarian.
Screaming "authoritarian!" does not change the fact that Abrahamic religions are evil, violent, and designed for nothing more than division and control. Your Reversi isnt working.
Keep up the good fight, yo. Nuance is the real enemy!
Using nuance to look the other way has brought us to the brink of Project 2025, a full state authoritarian government sponsored by Abrahamic religion. Pretending dangers arent real (because it's unfashionable) does not make you seem enlightened.
I assume if you ever encounter someone claiming people who support Trump aren't Christians you go on about "No True Scotsman" as well?
No. Why would I do that? I'm sure plenty of people supported Hitler's genocides who weren't Christians also.
