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!

All libs of tik tok did was repost the most absurd tweets they could find.
How are they responsible?
We've seen what you post.
Nothing but spurious reasoning and culture war red meat bullshit for gullible morons.
Your favorite source is Not The Bee.
So it's no wonder you don't understand.
Wow, you weren't kidding. That's one toxic comment/post history they've got.
What's up with the reddthat instance? Have you noticed a large percentage of chudposting from there it is it just me?
Oh, for sure; it must be like catnip for regressive reactionaries.
Are you following me around? Do you have a notification on your phone everytime I post?
I posted here first, genius.
Believe it or not I can... remember things. Like user names.
Crazy thing. You don't have to put any effort into "following people around". Just click a person's username and you can scroll right through their comment history to get an idea what you're dealing with.
It's not that it's a ton of effort, but that he's doing it at all.
I notice you responded to @Zombiepirate but not to me, even though I asked you a question.
Did you mean that she is unqualified for the job that she has been hired for and thus should be investigated? Also, if not, what are her qualifications?
That's all she does? Then she's highly unqualified to be on the Oklahoma Department of Education’s Library Media Advisory Committee and both she and Walters need to be investigated for financial impropriety immediately.
That's what you meant, right?
No, libs of tik tok is a twitter account. That's what the article meant, right? It's not like it lied, right?
A Twitter account run by Chaya Raichik, as the article clearly states. Maybe you should have read it. Or the summary.
What are Chaya Raichik's qualifications to be getting this government salary? Please tell me.
I had to look this up. Apparently it’s not a paid position:

Don’t disagree with you other wise. The only thing she sounds qualified for is dogwhistling and spreading misinformation.
Fair enough. The real problem is giving her the power she now has when, as you said, she's totally unqualified.
You see, when you tell fire at a movie theater, you are responsible for the chaos that happens.
A teenager died because this disgusting human filth spread lies and hate.
AGREED! Why is it HER fault for telling her followers to Bomb Schools and Hurt LGBTQ+ CHILDREN? It's OBVIOUSLY Biden's fault!
