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!

Did writing that make you feel better?
Well, it gave me a little giggle so yes.
I giggled too as an american. Why not enjoy the end times. People ushered this in through ignorance, arrogance, and inaction. let god sort em out.
Glad my sense of humour isnt entirely lost on you lot, best of luck in the apocalypse :)
Thank you! I've been a prepper most of my life so I'm ready for the results. These poor people can't even acknowledge the horrors they face in the imminent future. It's kinda cute and fitting. I'm very interested to see who survives in the post law, post walmart america. Maybe we can build a great nation again.
As a watcher it is definitely interesting, time to learn for the economists and sociologists. End of american hegemony was on my bingo card but i dont claim to know what happens. As an aussie i do know that we have more than enough food which is nice. I do hope you all can get your shit together but i would like to see an end to your influence on my country so i guess i'm not entirely on your side..
OI wanker. Ya I think that’s fair, American culture peaked 20 years ago and we no longer need to export it. Clearly the winner of the culture war was the culture war itself. I wouldn’t wish our fate on any nation.
Im of the opinion that china won. Which was entirely predictable, watching the outsourcers lose their shit is properly hilarious.
Jurys out on that they might get consumed with us. Their whole economy is geared towards our insatiable lust for consumption. They don't have many friends left from the Wolf Warrior bullshit they pulled for 10 years. My moneys on Europe coming together.
