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!

Reckless like her continued support of Israel in their genocide against the Palestinian people, which lost her entire districts which may have voted otherwise? Or reckless like doing appearances with Dick fucking Cheney to appeal to an imaginary centrist voting block that isn't there, instead of pushing one single progressive policy? That kind of reckless?

Right! And there's still people mad at Muslim voters because they have been effectively disenfranchised from our political systems. People care just enough for a vote but don't care if elected officials are held accountable. As long as the pumpkin spice and reality TV keeps rolling we'll happily march ourselves to the labor and breading camps ourselves. But I'm sure the next "No kings" march will turn things around.

She can fuck off I don't give a damn what her excuse is. She had a progressive movement even chose the correct VP. Yet she refused to call out and a genocide and then went with the Caneys trying once again to cort Republicans rather then fhe progressive vote.

I still voted for her, but it was not a surprise that she lost.

Every time she had a popular position or slogan it was immediately replaced or never used again.

She can fuck off with the other Jake Tappers and their “books”

Diet Hillary needs to go fuck off to some woods. Nobody wants to hear what she has to say. Not anymore.

[–] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 8 points 3 hours ago

Did she also say “there should have been a primary”?

[–] Lasherz12@lemmy.world 8 points 1 hour ago

Yes but despite that she wouldn't have done anything differently. Fuckoutahere

Of course it was. A substantial, but not the only, piece of idiocy she and Biden displayed. Whole bunch of fucking idiots the lot of em.
