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!

But don’t call these people stupid. That would be racist.
People I’ve interacted with on Lemmy 👆
Edit:
Are these people in the room with you right now 🙄
In their head, probably.

Your comments were removed we have no clue what you said.
The comment I linked directly proves what I said in the top level comment. No further context is necessary.
Ok
Right here dumbass.
For all I know you dropped a bloody slur. That link is useless, “dumbass” - the comments were removed.
Theirs isn’t, dumbass. Read the title and the comment they responded to. What other context do you need?
Lmfao bro you’re ridiculous. We are missing MULTIPLE chunks of the conversation.
And no it’s not racist to say someone is wrong just because they’re part of a marginalized group. I think it’s incredibly arrogant of people to speak on behalf of of other marginalized groups like that, and yes they get pretty racist if you go too far down the “we know what’s best for you and your people” path, but to just walk out and say “you can’t critique them that’s racist” is ridiculous to me. And if that’s not what the conversation is saying, who can blame me for reading it how I did? We’re missing half the damn conversation. But apparently that doesn’t matter to you?
