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!

What the fuck are you talking about ? The registration thing about the pornographic site ? Are you kidding me? You are comparing this with Trump licking Putin butt and crushing most of its citizen into slavery and submission ?
In Europe everything gets blocked and capitals get flooded with protestor for less than 0,01% of what Trump is doing.
Wake up, americans are fat, lazy and castrated sheeps spending their times arguing about wokeness or any other nonsense. Nothing compared to Europe.
Exactly. 45% of Americans are morbidly obese. They’re not gonna “go without” or stick their neck out for anything if it disrupts the journey of the next burger into their mouths. Trump is their king and they love it.
No, we do not. I can't help it if half my neighbors are illiterate. Wait until you find out just how many of your hate people who are not just like them. Your time is coming and I wish you the best of luck. It is awful to go through. We are no apathetic just because we can not stand against the most powerful military in the world.
Ofc you can help, you are just too afraid/lazy to take actions. Freedom is never granted, its taken. Every european know this
If you see something terrible happening around you and you don’t try to stop it - you are complicit. So if you’re American, you’re complicit in enabling Trump and his crimes.
You know we have protests, right? They are huge but there is no media coverage. The next step is violence. The National Guard is being called in 19 more states. How do you feel about fighting the US military? I am a nerd that has never killed anything. It will not go well for me. I guess we will be in a war soon enough. I wonder will you all still be talking shit when we are forced to kill our own family members in a civil war. Even if the sensible side wins, I don't even know what we would do with the 50% of the population that is illiterate and can not be bothered to understand anyone who is not just like them. Americans are so disappointing. What a bunch of idiots! I wish I could go.
We will see how that works out for you all when these far right parties start winning. You are not immune.
Even when a normal party gets to power its a hell of a headache for them to govern without triggering nation wide protest. With a far right one it would be worse...
And some european countries already have far right government, like Italy. Is Meloni licking Putin butt or destroying its country or under investigation for pedophilia or corruption? No cause she is not a dictator like Trump.
Even Orban who is the greatest pos of European leader has way more decency than Trump.
