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!

Funny how someone coming to your home and telling you they own your house now, and might have to shoot your children, and you're only allowed to live now where there is no food or water or employment or safety, will lead to that sometimes.
Hamas is a horrible corrupt criminal terrorist organization, I agree. Killing and raping a bunch of people at a music festival is still a monstrous crime, whatever Israel has been doing, and also it will not help the Palestinians any. But it's not like Hamas wandered into someone else's homeland and started making trouble where there wasn't any before.
Meh, the strong win wars and make the rules. Read some history
HERE we go
I was waiting for this.
A super obnoxious anti-Palestine user, who also supports Biden and thinks we have to stop Trump from getting elected. I didn't like dig through your profile in detail, but those were the only two categories of comments I saw right off. This is the higher level shilling I was waiting for -- this is gonna be way more effective than "Biden is the worst, I'm not voting" which at this point is just setting yourself up to get yelled at by everybody and solidify the groupthink in the opposite direction than you wanted to.
I think you're being a little cartoonish with it though. Like it's immediately obvious reading this comment that something is very wrong. I think you wanna be a little more subtle instead of just crashing through the gate like "FUCK PALESTINE, YAY BIDEN, AGBLARBLRBRA"
(Account created 14 days ago -- I predict we'll see a bunch more of these, too, maybe with a little more subtle of an approach 🤣)
