    My heart goes out to the people who didn’t vote for this shit. To the people that did, I sincerely hope you get what you deserve.

          Another unfortunate truth is that the Dildo of Consequence rarely comes lubed.

      Actually screw those who could vote but didn’t, especially those 15 million that doesn’t vote from the last election.

      As someone from a red state. I feel this hard. 66% of our population have sweeping control of the government. But that’s still 1 in 3 voters that routinely don’t vote for hate.

    Can’t wait to see project 2025 get implemented.

    Executive branch like a fascist dictator

    Government agencies like the FDA, EPA gutted

    Justice department completely politicized

    Insurrectionist pardoned

    Tax cuts for the rich

    Social safety nets cut

    Social security out to pasture, especially Gen Z

    ACa repealed

    Federal abortion ban

    It’s going to be a wild ride thanks to Americans.

            That’s the neat part: The fight never ends. We just keep fighting and fighting and fighting.

                And if it’s not, at least I can die satisfied knowing I gave it everything I had.

                That does not feel satisfying to me. And I’ll constantly wonder if there was anything else I could have done.

      Don’t do their work for them.

      Sometimes, simply existing is the greatest act of rebellion. Let your life be an affront to them, every single day. Get up just to spite them.

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!
