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!

This story reads like AI slop to get people angry which DailyKOS is known for. There's a what happened, but there's quite a few details missing.

edit: I found it on NBC: https://www.nbcnews.com/video/video-shows-woman-using-racist-slur-on-playground-238830661724

And she's raising the cash on a supposedly "christian" go fund me-type site. Apparently "do unto others..." is not a thing with maga christians

[–] Goodmorningsunshine@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

There's no such thing as a good Christian. They're all just hate-filled assholes itching to go back to lynching.

[–] FreedomAdvocate@lemmy.net.au -1 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Pretty hateful thing to say lol

[–] Smoogs@lemmy.world 1 points 2 minutes ago

Ok so then Where’s the Christian’s while kilmar Garcia is getting lynched with no due process while trump edits a picture with ms13 on the knuckles?

Supporting trump and trump lies. That’s where.

Prove them wrong. Most who loudly proclaim themselves christians, if not all, are more comfortable claiming "Jesus is King" rather than living as He wants them to. They point their fingers at others, spout hatred, and kill in the name of their Lord, rather than help solve poverty, healing the sick, and breaking bread with their neighbours. The billionaire "christians" even try all they can to impose their rigid worldview upon the world, and are (or are indistinguishable from) fascists. The mere existence of them is an affront to the teachings of Jesus Christ; He would throw them out of their temple in disgust. Prove them wrong by ousting these people as the false prophets they are rather than let your children fall to their toxic masculinity, discrimination, and classism.

Yeshua the hardline Orthodox Jew from first century Galilee wouldn’t recognize the religion that sprung up only a few decades after his death, let alone what sprung up in Europe, and especially the various modern sects. He would be appalled that gentiles had created an entirely new religion out of the worship of his idol.

[–] Draegur@lemm.ee 18 points 16 hours ago

The fascists are getting too comfortable.

[–] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 39 points 20 hours ago

You don't even have to ask in what racist shithole country that happened.

[–] Justathroughdaway@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

[–] thatradomguy@lemmy.world 32 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

I'm glad to know I'm not a cunt who plays victim. I hate the n word but if I said it and got my ass kicked I wouldn't be mad because I'll know I deserved it.

I hate how these people play victim whenever they face consequences....but can't wait for Trump to give her the Medal of Honor. ( /s for the trump part)

[–] Prior_Industry@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

Can you really say there is not a chance Trump would get involved somehow, get her up on stage etc. Not sure the /s is needed.

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago

bless her heart

And those same people who gave her money are also the first ones to say, “I have no money.”

[–] Prior_Industry@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

The prices are too high, I have not a bean!

[–] mrodri89@lemmy.zip 3 points 14 hours ago
