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!

Summary

Police in Berwyn, Illinois, responded to an altercation involving white nationalist Nick Fuentes and Marla Rose, a woman who reportedly confronted him at his home after his address was doxxed.

Rose claims Fuentes sprayed her with a liquid, took her phone, and pushed her. She posted and later deleted a video of the incident and has since faced online harassment, including “swatting.”

Both Rose and Fuentes are currently refusing to cooperate with police, leaving the investigation stalled.

Fuentes and far-right commentators defended his actions, citing self-defense.

"Your house, my choice." while everyone takes turns taking a hot steamy dump on his doorstep?

This is it. But put the turd in a bag, with "your house, my choice" written all over it, so that even a scrap can be read, and launch it.

Don't tarry, conceal identifying features, and if he starts getting guarded, wait until that passes, or organize a flash mob via an anonymized medium to increase impact and reduce casualties.

[after putting dog poop in a paper bag and lighting it on fire on Old Man Fuentes' porch]
fluxion: Oh my God, Old Man Fuentes hates shit.
bastion: Shh, here he comes.
Old Man Fuentes: Who the hell is it? What do you want? Judas Priest, Charlie, it's one of those flaming bags again.
Charlie: Don't put it out with your boots, Nick.
Old Man Fuentes: Don't tell me my business, Devil Man. Call the fire department, this one's outta control.
[Old Man Fuentes steps on the bag, then lifts up his boot and smells]
Old Man Fuentes: Eck, poop again.
fluxion: He called the shit "poop".
[fluxion, ShaggySnacks, and bastion laugh hysterically]
bastion: This is the best night of my life.
[They continue laughing]
Old Man Fuentes: I'll get you damn kids for this. You're all gonna die.
