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!

From one of the top donors, just insane...
Not a white nationalist, but reading that makes me wish they were at risk of extinction as they cry about it.
the world will be better without racists.
I thought for sure "1022" was going to be some neo-nazi number. As far as I can tell, it's not.
That's the result of them passing the hat around their local militia.
they were $466 short on their fundraising goal
A self-respecting person would return that money. But I doubt she is.
She's one of them hence why she's even on that site.
Unfortunately that site is also the one that held the biggest Mangione fundraiser. It doesn't seem to moderate it's fundraisers beyond the absolute legal minimum.
Jesus fucking christ
I know what I want to say would get me permabanned on Reddit. How does that work here, I wonder?
Depends on your admin. And the admin/mod of the community you're posting on.
If the admin of the instance hosting the community you're posting to (or a mod of said community) removes your comment, it would prevent anyone seeing your comment anywhere.
If another admin removed your comment, it would do nothing for anyone except the users of that admin's instance.
Bans are similar. YOUR admin can ban you which would stop you being able to post anywhere. Other admins can ban you too, but it would only stop your comments/posts appearing to their users, and keep any comments/posts of yours on their communities from being seen by anyone outside your instance.
If for example lemmy.world banned me, a thelemmy.club user, lemmy.world users would not see any future comments from me. If I then commented on a post on [email protected] the lemmy.world server would reject my comment and not tell any other instance of it. Users of thelemmy.club would see my comment, but nobody else. My comments/posts on non .world communities would be seen as normal by everyone but .world users.

These profligates need to be lashed to crosses and feasted on by ravens, burn their houses to the ground and salt the earth. Let their names be shouted to the sky so that all know what damned well happened, removing their name implies shame for one action and there is no shame in killing fascistic dogs.
That moment when calling a child a racist slur in order to start a gofundme crosses your mind as a legitimate business tactic...
I'm low on cash, can I call you a slur for my go fund me?
Imagine deciding you’re going to donate to the charity of calling children the n word. This is why everybody thinks the US is a fucking joke.
She continued her victimhood, “I have two small children who do not deserve this. We have been threatened to the extreme by people online. Anything will help! We cannot, and will not live in fear!”
Fucking asshole.
To bad it's just threats. :(
100% true, her children do not deserve to deal with her shit.
That's not enough to hire security for very long.
racist militias (the police) will protect her, not only for free, but using tax dollars,
THIS is the FREEDOM Americans VOTED for! REMEMBER this Next Time you read about an Innocent Business Owner HURT by Trump's Policies! THIS is Why they Voted for him DIVISIVE LIBTARDS!
