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!

Yes, these churchy mf's are horribly oppressive
If your faith can’t survive the existence of someone a little more secular than you, or a few probing questions from an atheist, then I think your faith is the problem.
The mere fact that I am an atheist who values a secular society not ruled by an organized religion, does not oppress you, Josh. I wouldn’t know how to oppress your spirituality even if I wanted to. Another thing: spirituality does not equal religion. They are not the same thing. Read a dictionary, then the bible, and then grow up. Problem solved.
Fellow atheist here. I swear, are you me because I feel the same way? All these people on the right come across so childish in their beliefs and behaviors. Whenever I get them talking about their hangups that is usually the question I ask them. Are you a baby or something? It forces them to self reflect which I think many of them are lacking in doing on a regular basis.
Fuck that dude. What a weaselly opportunist coward.
Blaming atheists for the negative reaction to stripping people of rights and dignity is the exact kind of projection they use to let you know they want you gone if you don’t believe.
Spoiler belief is an unquantifiable undefinable made up non-existent thing.
They can just use it as a free “this guy doesn’t believe like we do” and then you’re gone even for people who are actually in their stupid religion
