Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

If you are voting for Harris you are doing exactly that, and it's disgusting how flippant you are about her supporting a genocide.

A vote for Harris is a vote for Genocide. As soon as she vows to stop supporting the one carrying out a genocide, she can gety vote.

I will not vote for Hitler to save us from Hitler (but worse!)

But you wouldn't vote against Hitler if the opponent would be Harris?

I will not vote fora pro Genocide candidate. It's that simple.

Would you vote against Hitler if the opponent was Muhammad Dief?

Would you vote against Netanyahu in the same scenario?

The fact that you put Harris on the same level as the others tells me all I need to know about you.

Is Kamala Harris actively aiding and vowing continued support for a genocidal apartheid state, yes or no?

Is Mohammed Dief fighting against the genocidal apartheid regime, yes or no?

You're right, it's honestly wrong to compare/associate the two...

Edit: since you advocate for supporting the "lesser evil", do you actively support Hamas against the genocidal apartheid state of Israel?

Or only "lesser evil" as long as they are pro Genocide of Palestinians?
