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 seem to love throwing out insults to people who seem to genuinely want a better world. Pretty weird why to try encourage a movement of the people against the government. Learn to exist in a community. Even if you don’t agree with everything people say. Try to find the common ground, I can see it.

asdfasfasfasfasIt was, they answered it, you're just pushing more because you don't realize you failed your gotcha.
You asked:
And they answered with what they wanted you to do. What you do specifically about voting is irrelevant as that was not the topic at hand.
They did not answer the question that was asked. Saying it's irrelevant doesn't change that fact.
The question: what do you want us to do differently?
The answer: Mass protests. Civil disobedience. The kinda of things that ended slavery and helped raise women's rights. The things we used to do instead of sitting down and just taking it.
God, that was hard

asdfasfasfasfasNo, you tried to make it about that after someone else commented without specification on that front.
Oh no, why didn't people respect the moved goalposts?
Fucking Idiot you are, bud
