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!

You can always leave the country. The biggest leverage you have over your country is you staying there and keep paying taxes. There is always a choice.
Which is happening in Israel: https://www.npr.org/2024/09/17/g-s1-22080/israel-emigration-gaza-war
And is happening in Russia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_emigration_during_the_Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine
And it should happen way more in the US. I genuinely don’t understand how can you be american and sleep at night.
When you have a country where child poverty in some states is miserable, where workers protections in some states are miserable, where education is often miserable, and where this produces people who vote for misery, I guess you just get used to being surrounded by misery.
True and sad really, that’s why my comment. I personally know people who left their country with the whole family and company and people with just a plastic bag with their clothes. People shouldn’t be used to misery.
Getting used to misery might be the only option when profits is to be gained from forcing people to work as hard as possible.
I'm a teacher. "Get used to misery" is what we teach young people.
How is it you expect them to escape the cycle of poverty lmfao
"More oppression would surely make us rich!"
Nice solutions. Fucking troll lol.
I feel the same way about Guatemalans (just kidding, that would be racist.)(also; fuck you and the shitty cliche you rode in on 🫶)
It does happen. I took my family out of there. I was fortunate to have a job that supported me working fully remote and dual citizenship. It's still been less than breezy.
Good on you man, for sure is not easy but at least is satisfying.
It sounds very "just so", but we went car free and lost about forty pounds without changing a thing, year one. Worth it.
Then please leave. We don't want you.
Never come back.
(We both know you're not American so I'm going to block your FSB ass now)
Is Russian paranoia the Qanon for the left? Anytime there is a challenge it's immediately where people go.
Good lord you missed the point. Yes I will leave your precious fucked up country ahah block block hurry up
Except your money doesn't fund the US federal government. The federal government funds everyone with its money.
You can't tax back money that hasn't been created first
Yes, but it’s not only taxes, it’s your expenses, your kids, your job etc… we take for granted our contribution to our land and community.
