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!

Absolutely. I don't know what is so difficult for you to understand about this. Democrats want to limit the killing. Republicans want to increase the killing. There's never been an easier choice in the history of choices.

Think any Republicans would every say that?
Why are you telling me about empty words being said when i am showing you concrete, physical facilitation of the killing Israel has been committing??
Because Democrats are trying to rein in Netanyahu. Republicans are trying to make him go farther. You really don't see the difference?
some portion of democrats are telling you they're trying to rein in Netanyahu, because it's going terribly for them politically. In practice, the only things they have actively done is send him more weapons to kill more Gazans with. That's it.
It always comes down to conspiracy theories with you people. "They SAY they want to stop the genocide but what they REALLY want is more genocide". If I throw enough facts that contradict your story, you'll start abandoning facts.
this is a new one, I've never seen someone try to argue something someone has said is proof they're not lying about what they're saying. I dont think you care about facts but here's some more to throw on https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2024/03/06/us-weapons-israel-gaza/
I'm saying it's impossible to prove they're not lying, that's what makes it a conspiracy theory.
I've been proving they're lying. Jeez even if we didnt live in a cartoon world where democrats are actively sending bombs for Israel to use on more Gaza civilians, they'd still be lying because they are saying they are going to do something, and we can see that they havent done it!
Because your definition of "do something" is always "do more than what you can accomplish with the numbers we give you". That's why it's impossible to prove - how ever much they do, you'll say it's nothing.
they've been accomplishing quite a lot! I've been showing you their accomplishments, you've been ignoring all of them.
Ok. Name 3 good things Democrats have done.
