    After 8 yrs of this nonsense, I’m floored anyone still takes what Trump says seriously.

      Indeed, Trump, Biden, all politicians are liars. I find it interesting to see what they lie about.

        Weird that you can’t see the difference between Trump and Biden.

          What’s even more weird is that you think that two liars are exactly the same.

            I don’t think they’re the same. That’s the point. They are very different. You are bad at this.

                lol. You can’t just edit your post history and say you never said it. 😂

                Keep digging deeper. You surely will dig you way out.

            As someone who lives in Europe and has never experienced Trump you need to check your privilege here.

            Pushing political apathy only causes harm for the poorest and most vulnerable Americans.

              That’s cute, Americans talking about privilege while their military industrial complex wages forever wars and their financial imperialism squeezes the entire world.

                Wrong again.

                I’m not an American.

                This being said I did live there for many years and saw the harm caused by Republicans first hand.

                Secondly yah. Russia and America waging aggressive wars is a major problem. Both need to stop. America was wrong in invading Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya. Russia is wrong for invading Ukraine, Georgia, and Chechnya. Imperialism is bad.

                But most importantly in the context of you here, you need to brush up leftist intersectional theory. You can’t avoid checking your privilege by trying to say someone else is (wrongly) an American.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!
