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!

'Rolling coal' has entered the chat
I saw my first 'coal roller' recently. Wtfffff. How is that legal? Such a spectacular display of myopic dickishness.
I got coal rolled or whatever. Hopped in my car and follow the fuck to the grocery store. Keyed the ever loving FUCK out of both sides of his truck, actually damaged my key a little. Big ass sine wave up and down both sides of the entire thing. Drove off laughing into the sunset.
You should be ashamed of the terrible thing you did! (To that poor key.)
The key will never recover.
It’s interesting, normally I’m a pretty mellow, non-confrontational person and am normally horrified at the idea of vandalizing someone else’s property for any reason, but after I was subject to that cloud of death smoke it awoke something in me and I just snapped. Everyone has their limits I suppose.
It's such a senseless aggression and as manly as kicking a dog. It's difficult to not put it in some sort of check—it took me a mile to realize I wasn't watching engine trouble, but some raging asshole toy with an EV and a complete stranger's safety for the fun of it. Who the fuck does that? What has to be broken in you to enjoy that shit? Agh. Just please be careful when you engage with the death cult, they aren't working with a full deck.
