Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

So, the same god (lowercase intentional) that spared Taco decided to murder innocent children that were camping and got hit with a flash flood? Is this supposed to be a good god?

[–] otacon239@lemmy.world 11 points 15 hours ago

First answer: yes

Second answer: is that profitable?

Holy shit it’s only been a year? I feel like I’ve aged a decade since then.

It’s only been 175 days since he took office……..

You misspelt months

Ask them why God wants to cover up the Epstein files.

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 10 hours ago

The assassin did hit a firefighter behind Trump. Did God not care about that guy?

[–] Brunbrun6766@lemmy.world 11 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Ask them why their God let all those kids die in Texas, but spared Trump?

[–] KairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 11 hours ago

“Because it’s all part of his plan!”

The reason their arguments work for them, is because they never needed to make sense in the first place.

[–] SkabySkalywag@lemmy.world 5 points 13 hours ago

Nope, God is just a lousy shot.

[–] FreshParsnip@lemmy.ca 4 points 9 hours ago

Maybe God was out to get him and missed

[–] MantisToboggon@lazysoci.al 3 points 16 hours ago

They are correct Bahl be with him.

[–] lukaro@lemmy.zip 2 points 11 hours ago

I just wish the shoot had better, or worse training.

[–] just_another_person@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

Yeah, if only the wind would have been slightly different, but we aren't so lucky.

These same assclowns wouldn't be ordaining events about God, but blaming Democrats. Funny how hurting humans is NOT what they're all about, but suddenly that's cool with JesusGod or whatever.

[–] fittedsyllabi@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

They’re right, their god spared Tramp. Whoever their god is.
