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!

It's almost as if there are many different people on that website.
And if they're still on there they're supporting a Nazi shit head. People need to migrate their communities. Stop being lazy. Stop being part of the problem. Get off the nazi website
I actually looked up the people I follow on X on other platforms such as Mastodon & Bluesky, I found 0 on Mastodon and 3 on Bluesky...
Who/what do you follow that is worth supporting the app? I have never used Twitter/x, I'm genuinely curious
A few examples include Drop Site, Aymeric Canon, Mary Kostakidis, Bruno Tertrais, Marco Botenga MEP, Régis Le Sommier, Dr Jimmy Mohamed, Ian Caroll, Rachel Blevins, Scott Ritter, Trita Parsi, Kenneth Roth, Dominique De Villepin...
Thanks for sharing! If those are really important to you, you're in a bit of a pickle that I don't envy.
Many people, especially on Lemmy, pretend to live extremely virtuously. The reality is we each make some compromises in our lives.
Oh yeah absolutely, I hope you don't think I was passing any judgement
No, I didn’t think you were passing judgement, and I appreciate your balanced take. I was referring to other people.
Ok cool. Yeah sometimes I wish I could see only black and white, seems like an easy way to live.
Another way to look at it is like having to use Windows because that's what they use at your job. There's a problem but because most people are oblivious or don't care, the momentum is difficult to escape. You may find it easy to say 'quit you job then' to fully show your disapproval but not everyone has that luxury.
I do hope everyone that is stuck using it mentions in every commission or interaction that they are available on different sites as well though.
Anyone still using it or of convenience though should quit immediately.
And its a shitty thing for each of them to use the website.
