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!

Winning through delegitimizing the other side to keep soldiers from being willing to fight is the only practical way to win under these conditions
Well there are two approaches. First you try peace frog. If that doesn’t work, you use other means.
Peace frog doesn’t work. Now what? Peace pigeon? When can we start shooting?
You can start now if you want. It's not going to end well for you until there's a critical mass doing it with you.
I guess if everyone waits for critical mass…
Can’t have a critical mass, when everyone is doom scrolling through the Lemmy and Reddit.
Yeah... I'm not saying I have a better answer or a solution.
Nah man we only need 3.5% of peaceful protest. Let's ignore the fact the people who made the observation said it doesn't always work and that as time goes on that that number is less relevant.
So yeah when is the next No Kings™️ rally? Gotta get my protest shirt from Amazon.
I think we need to see what happens during some upcoming elections. If the US becomes irreversibly pedophile, you might get your wish. It’s good to stock up now though on guitars and other machines that kill pedophiles.
Bold of you to assume there will be elections in the future.
lol right?
Sweetie, when it comes down to it, fucking children isn’t high on the ‘bad list’ for the majority of humans. They just don’t want to be shamed for doing it or for not having much of an opinion on it.
… this is why they get elected and not charged despite clear evidence.
I think you’re not getting me. We need to creative in how we refer to bad people to avoid falling into boxes created by our enemy, which they then use to create lists.
You also don’t have to try to be more aware of our current dire state than me. I get it. What is the best way forward is the question. I’m not on board with a strategy of resorting to violence when there is a chance to solve it without first. That’s not to say we may not need a revolution. The trouble with that is once you start breaking things, it’s hard to put them together again.
Yes
