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!

My understanding, though, as a Canadian, is that refusing to sell Jack Daniel's is over-stepping, and that they have the unalienable right to be on whatever privately owned shelves and sold in whatever privately owned facilities they wish, regardless of threats made to autonomy or safety.
Are there any (liqor) companies who have the ovaries to keep DEI policies? Please dont tell me its gin :'(
All bars who support "having sex for fun" should do this.
I don't support sex being limited to marriage and procreation and otherwise shamed.. and even outlawed.
Said every ancient Greek ever. We've got a true conservative here, at least in the realm of sexuality between two consenting adults.
Well I guess that last clause would cause you to be anethema to the modern conservative causes.

Isn't there more left leaning voters than right. The right only wins through Gerry mandering. So maybe this is reality catching up with the shitty fake reality we've been living.
Politics skewed people's view of who exists out there. The majority of people are common sense, we all just live within a block of each other. So politically the consensus looks like it's trump supporters. Reality is people are more common sense. But the skewed political view made the everytime executive private school class get too comfortable that they started showing their lizard skin and now we see them for what they are and have to pay
No there aren't. Presidential election shows that
Leaning isn't the same thing as voting.
Turnout was down because of gaza
Remember, there's lots of bourbon from places that aren't awful:
I doubt most of them are in cities, and I have some bad news for you about rural Washington State and Oregon.
All but 1 on the Washington list are from western WA (the nice half) and the other is from Spokane (hipsters who got priced out of Seattle and Portland)
Ah, that's promising. I'd still look into the individual companies before assuming they're owned by good people, though. The politics of business owners don't always align with the general population surrounding them.
the beginning of Trump's second term, before The Camps, and The Disappearances, when there were still LGBTQ bars.
Good. It's a crap bourbon anyways. It's like turpentine mixed with ear wax.
Good. Canada pulled it off the shelves. Jack Daniels also funded the anti-suffrage movement in the 1900s they have a long history of being on the bigot side of history.
They even sponsor the vice president. Or why else would he be called JD Vance?
I thought it stood for Jorken Dapeanus
They had two options:
- shut the hell up, change nothing, and continue to be humane
- virtue-signal that you're dicks
These are the one who make the honey booze, right? I'm just coming down with a man-cold - I rode the train without a mask, serves me bloody right - and my supply of elixir is really low. Now what am I gonna do?

Ooh, this just got real. I'll report back.
Thank you for being dicks, JD !!
I'll also need a new honey whiskey. I believe an Irish version had it.
Tullamore DEW.
Regular Tullamore Dew is delicious. Like a very smooth scotch but Irish. When I used to drink, it was a go to.
Mind if I join in your dry wistful remembrance?
I'll have plenty of chances to taste Irish treats soon. I start my visit on Sunday.

Bärenjäger! Hard to find sometimes, but fuck me is it absolutely delicious! And it's not affiliated with bigots.
Where my Canadian Club enthusiasts?
CC and coke is so damn good. Especially the 12 year aged one. And now I want a rye and coke
