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!

We did. We even won a mayoral primary. Then, the local dems stumped for a write in campaign for the incumbent mayor, and leaned heavy on cops to vote.
In exchange for that, the local Dems dropped lit and in other ways helped the Reich Wing sheriff win his race.
So, again, how do you organize around the two major parties working together to ensure you are kept out?
Oh, cherry on top? The local Board of elections chair is also the chair of the dem committee... who made sure the primary winner lost her other ballot line (WFP)....
Yeah.... voot bloo no matter hoo!
And you act shocked when people say both parties are the same?
Oh, remember that time socialists won the Nevada Dem Committee in a wipe out? Remember afterwards they canceled all office leases, drained the bank accounts, and filed a recertification of the organization with the state?
Yeah, those are good times....
And yet the Squad all managed to do it.
The squad has done some awesome.stuff, sure.
How do you suggest we organize around the situation I described? The party boss controls all levers if government here...
I mean, wfp has been fighting hard... against the dems trying to keep them off the ballot, totally....
Our fucking governor is a right winger and a Dem...
You are allowed to contribute to and work for people outside your district.
At this point, far to much to do locally, to be overly worried about a Christofascist state's elections.
I usually don't bother to look at people's names when they post. You're running three arguments at once and not making sense in any of them.
You just keep repeating yourself, and never post any actual ideas or plans.
I've said good-bye once, andnow I'll do it again.
I'd block you, but I got a chuckle out of how demented you were getting.
