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!

Do you follow op around just to harass them? If you had read the article (or even the whole title) youd see this article doesn't focus on Biden, or any candidate at all.
I follow the community, and OP posts this type of rhetoric VERY frequently here. I will call it out for what it is.
Is that going to be a problem for you?
I didn't ask you that question, i made a rhetorial statement to illustrate the low worth of your comment.
And now im telling you yes, your comment is a problem for me because i like content. you are bullying a content creator, and you don't. read. articles.
You are content i do not like. I would block you because of your shameless, stupid behavior, but i can't. Youre bullying a content creator, which means leaving you alone could mean i get less.
Dont you dare speak pridefully for your behavior. You don't deserve pride for that, or anger for this. If we lived in a better world, or were you a better person? You might actually learn some shame.
What you do need now is to recognize what a child you've been, and rectify it going forward.
Begin your growth. Everyone is waiting.
Bias absolutely should be called out. And defending bad content because it’s content is pretty fucking ignorant. Reddit provides content. Do you get pissed off when people call Reddit out for what it is?
In addition- hypocrisy should be called out as well. And you bullying about me calling out OP over the propaganda they share is a pretty damn good example of it.
Lastly, I take great pride in the fact that I have educated myself enough understand how nuance works. It’s allowed me to spot things like the bias in OP’s post history….. among other things.
Now, you’re free to respond with another Karenistic tirade about what I do and don’t have the right to say, but it won’t change the fact that I am MANY others here know what OP is up to.
And we point it out because we actually care about the quality of the content, not just the amount of it.
I think you probably spent the whole time defending your actions as honorable, but i don't have the stomach for a whole paragraph of you rationalizing being a shithead to another human being. you probably rationalized that his message must be attacked for the greater good or something?
Homie, you. are. the. problem. I absolutely hate, like really hate people like you. You're the same online or off, and the only way you'll change is if someone stronger makes you. That is who you are. I want you to understand it. In your bones. You are not righteous. You are not helping. You are not neccessary.
Now let me express how things will work going forward.
I will continue to harp on you every time you do this childish, bullying exercise. I will do this for awhile. I don't suspect i can make you do anything, or change, but i can hope that having someone like me do the same thing to you, that you are doing to someone else, flips that rusty empathy switch in your brain, and allows clarity of thought.
Probably not, i will probably get bored first, stubborn people are extremely tiring to me.
Ill see you soon
Cool story. Didn’t read it. Going to block you now as I can’t stand wall-of-text rhetoric from socialists.
Byeeeee!
