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!

They have secret police kidnapping people. They are literally following the third Reich playbook They are Nazis we either start fighting back or die
Considering how the orange ~~man~~ baby is filling the military with his own goons, the rest of the world can't do anything about it. You'll have to sort yourself out. Imma just make since popcorn and watch the show from Europe.
Well facism is spreading like a cancer across the world and your neoliberal politicians are in bed with the same oligarchs that run our surveillance state and mass incarceration system so it’s heading right for you
Oh fuck OFF with that.
We’ve been telling you for DECADES what would happen if you keep letting your kids play with matches. In response, you were shitty and belligerent. Now your house is ablaze and your response to demands that you put out the fire is, “shut your mouth, your house is next.”
Absolutely go fuck yourself.
He's right. Democracy is slipping world-wide and your "it can't happen here" is exactly how the US got into this state in the first place. You can't let your guard down.
No idea how you read “it can’t happen here” from my comment. It absolutely can, and it IS, and it’s because we were called anti-American and told “worry about your own country” for 30-40 years when we pointed out, rightly, that this was the path the US was on.
Wait, do I understand you correctly? You seem to think that had the US fought against their own Nazis, you wouldn't have any Nazis in Europe? How does that make sense?
Many of us in the US have also been sounding the alarm for over a decade. This is a country with like 400 million people...
I LEARNED IT FROM YOU, DAD!
The American military has always been compromised if these people. The difference is the attack on leadership
Europe will be next. The Heritage Foundation and the Opus Dei have plans for this side of the Atlantic too, in cooperation with Russia.
I say this as a European.
No doubt. I just hope they'll fail. I've always said that there's a high probability of me killing myself before I die of old age, but if shit comes to shove, I'll happily become a matyr by standing up for others.
