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!

Yeah turn on each other immediately. That will give you hope for next time.
Good chance there isn't going to be a next time, dude. It's hard not sounding hyperbolic when saying things like "its the end of the world" but the next four years were CRITICAL to climate change, and we've voted to pour even more gas all over it. We don't even have violent resistance to fall back on. The 'progressives' who stayed home this election because they couldnt hold their nose and vote for harris? Have damned us all. They're just as much to blame for whats about to happen as the pathetic campaign harris was running.
It doesn't matter if we're fracturing the left. There was never any unity there in the first place.
The last twenty years were critical for climate change. The dems did fuck all
I think it was the Trump voters that did that, actually.
It is all of the electorates fault, and exclusively the electorates fault
And the electorate (well, active electorate) is majority Trump voters
Abstaining is an active political choice. Every adult in America is the electorate
And you voted for a genocider. Sacrificing foreigners because your precious american life is so much better than the rest of us.
I have good news! I'll end up in a conversion camp because yall decided the lives of illiberal islamist fucks halfway across the world were more important than mine. Guess I'll get exactly what I deserve for... checks notes not wanting to be genocided
You're as much of a racist scum as a trumper, idiot.
Why are you better than my friends in lebannon, you scum? What you think being trans makes you a better human? I dont wish you to get thrown in a conversion camp. That is too easy.
I hope some foreign power come and bombs your city with white phosphorus. I wish you to know the fear of having somebody you love disfigured because of napalm. I'm sure conversion camp doesn't sounds so bad now, does it. You ivory tower yankee fuck. Nobody cares about your pp. You're a fucking fascist and a coward who would throw your sister and brother under the bus just so you don't have to fight against fascism. You dont wish to fight against fascism, you just want to externalize it. And you pretend you are for LGBT rights? Fuck off.
As a good yank, you only care about your own ass. You are trash.
What next time?
The opinion of a shit starter and flame fanner is not needed.
