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!

No. But I enjoy this more than fascism, and likely all of those things you listed will get measurably worse under a second term of Trump armed with Project 2025.
Yeah. It would definitely become worse. But hopefully a revolution will come of it ( I would certainly participate in the resistance). And if not, and the general population prefers the fascism, I've already got my euthanasia go bag.
So your entire hope is based on the idea that "This is currently fascism, and has been fascism for decades now, but if we let it get just a LITTLE bit worse, then The Revolution will totally rise up and overthrow this whole system!"?
Look Pug, I've given my life a time limit as it is, y'all either get it together you you don't. I'm not finna deal with this for longer than another decade bruh.
So that's a 'yes' then?
Jesus Christ.
So we hitting the gun store & shooting range or what? Don't get complacent about your freedom now, we got work to do. For the next decade at least.
Some of us aren't under the impression that "A civil war that will kill millions and has no guarantee of success rather than handing over absolute power to a fascist government" is better than "A milquetoast centrist for a few years".
This reads like you realize you lost the argument but are trying to save face by acting manly
...manly? Argument? What, y'all thought any of this conversation was going to convince me to go vote? Good night.
No, generally I don't expect people with such juvenile notions of human society to be convinced by arguments. But it's best not to let them spread their drivel celebrating the death of millions unopposed.
Y'all don't care about them Palestinians. Got it.
Look bruh, I'm not finna argue with you bruh
Fair point, but I feel like you're making some assumptions about the way I speak in real life and what that would say about my demeanor bruh.
Hopefully? What a batshit insane notion. "Yeah, I hope my friends and family die in a civil war fighting fascists." We don't have to go to war, but if people act like they're entitled to the "perfect" candidate earning their vote and are unwilling to make compromises, then Trump and the Heritage Foundation have already won.
Kinda fucking funny that a guy who is whining about "genocide enabling" wants a bunch of innocent civilians slaughtered in some fucked up idea of a "revolution"
