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!

I'm getting sick of the doomer comments on Lemmy to the point that I'm getting suspicious of them.
I'm sorry but no. If that's what's motivating you I'm sorry to hear that. Our country is close to mirroring Germany in the 30's.
You think everything will just be back to normal?
How long do you think it's going to take the education department to get back to what it was?
Are we going to magically recreate the documents that have been destroyed or erased by this admin?
You are acting like some of these judges and races are gonna do anything.
Jfc, you are living in a illusion just like Democrats were for election thinking it was easy.
So unless you have better proof that shit is going to be better I suggest you start learning who you can trust and what needs to be removed from your phone for privacy.
This is not a Lemmy thing only.
Fuckin "this is fine" meme get the fuck out of here with that BS.
God shut the fuck up with the doomer shit.
I said to go vote and that's you're response?
Get your head out of your asshole.
Doomer?
Shit I'm sorry that I can see the exact history of what's happening in the US. As a matter of fact you remind me if the other dude that was worried about the economy, while people were worried about people being deported for their skin color.
Yet that didn't matter and here we are people disappearing and finding them in El Salvador.
I may be in my ass, but I think I rather be there than in a fuckin illusion that you are in. Watching everything burn and keep saying it's fine.
Let's vote the judges that the federal government isn't even following.
Good fuckin plan son. I rather start cooking MAGA with Molotovs.
Hope you don't get caught with skid marks on your underwear when it gets worse.

In response to your link. "Fuck you, got mine" seems to be a very central part of most of America no matter party affiliation.
It's entirely impossible for most people to consider the lives of other people. They will start to moan and whine when they can't afford restaurant trips, thinking they deserve pitty. Meanwhile they completely ignoring the millions of dead minorities who died for the terrible crime of being different.
Again, I am advocating for action.
You're running your mouth.
I don't need you, so I'm blocking you now.
Bye 👋
Lol. Stay in your echo chamber.
Let me live with this veil over my eyes.
No, I'm escaping the echo chamber you're trying to create; the one where we're doomed and there's nothing we can do
I know you're a try-hard doomer who will want the last word. Just know you're screaming into the void.
Bruh you forgot to switch smurphs.
You seriously can't believe people are this pessimistic at this point?
I'm having a tough time believing THAT.
You can vote your way into fascism, but you can't vote your way out of it.
Just gonna keep tagging doomers as doomers and blocking repeat offenders.
Creating a negative atmosphere is easy to do. To presume the people have no power here is horseshit. Anyone who is rolling over and dying, be my guest. You're not my people.
