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!

“During their encounter, Wolf reportedly told the student, ‘I will tear your a– apart if you ever vote for Donald Trump or any other stinking conservative Republicans. I’ll let you go into moderates. But if I hear Trump or Cruz or even any member of the Bush family, you’re not going to sit down for days.’”

Bro what the fuck hahaha! And I'm extremely kinky, but this is a new one. Politics only gets involved re: letting me keep my and partner's rights, otherwise that shit gets left at the door.

But whatever, it's kinda sorta not hurting anyone.

Dang. No Dark Brandon fantasies in this article. I guess he’s just too boring.

Malarkey is the safe word

Wtf, they better not infiltrate mine

This just sounds like astroturfing based on hearsay.

[–] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 1 points 11 months ago

Even if it isn't, why does anyone give a shit?

[–] dragontamer@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago (2 children)

How is it that every kink I learn about confuses me?

You'd think that of all the kinks I've learned about, I'd have gotten used to it by now.

[–] treefrog@lemm.ee 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Because you haven't found your kink yet?

[–] dragontamer@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago (2 children)

On the contrary, my kink is not a kink. Its just sexy. :-)

Its everyone else's kink that's a problem!!

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Ah, so you’ve found kink shaming sexy.

[–] treefrog@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

You cracked me up just now. Thank you. My day has been shit so it was nice to laugh.

[–] the_q@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Because the word kink is now an umbrella term for just dumb shit.

[–] TaterTurnipTulip@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

With he amount of consent involved in kink, I imagine MAGA supporters would be pretty shitty doms and subs. They don't seem to understand or care about consent.
