politics
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!

Yeah you need to learn how the SCOTUS works and stop this bizarre threadshitting you’re doing in all these immunity decision threads.
Oh - you’re not American? Ah, well. More reason to know what you’re talking about then before you repeat it ad nauseam, isn’t it?
Am I tripping? They're just saying that they think it's bad that these kinds of big decisions are up for 9 people to decide. Like, "it's bad that a court of 9 people has this much power". I don't see a "both sides" argument here at all, if anything what I see is a language barrier...
A language barrier is a possibility but I read it more than a few times, and it seemed to say pretty specifically all 9 were complicit in the immunity decision because all nine had the chance to argue it.
Which. Is . . not right. I mean, how to explain a dissenting opinion?
so how does this scotus work? Providing some facts backed with searchable terms or a link to legal discussions can help more of us understand.
"Oh so please create a lesson plan for me with links and references so I can learn!"
You sound like a jackass.
You are winning people over all the time with your great reasoning. Don’t venture outside your echo chambers
Do I have to put together some links on how reasoning works too, champ?
You should focus on covering your ass as you’re about to be royally fucked
You think you're immune? That's funny.
Yeah - I live far away
You probably do need those notes
Nah - I’m quite happy having a skewed and false idea about how us politics and law work. But even Europe needs to prepare. We need new immigration laws so we don’t get overwhelmed by US citizens fleeing their country only to impose the same values on us that destroyed their country.
You argue that it is only the ones who voted for who decide, where as i say its all who were involved in the decision making. Who decides who becomes the president? Id say its all who vote. You say its only the ones who vote for the president. Maybe we both are right
Still, granding the president partly immunity by deciding this is how the law should be understood, should not be down to se few people.
BTW, trying to win an argument on US politics simply by taking ownership is just childish!
Word games don't make you right. You're simply incorrect.
Wrong. Also wrong. Oooh, wrong again. Okay, g’bye. Yeah. Bye now.
