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!

I feel like if we're to get out of this unscathed it'll be because of this kind of infighting. AntiMAGA people in gov't should find as many ways to stir the pot as they can.
EDIT: y'all - definitely agree that we're not getting out of this unscathed, you can quit pointing out my poor choice of words
Switch up "unscathed" for "have some kind of functional country with a democracy not particularly worse than what we've had".
Start building unions, mutual aid, and other grassroots political support. It's time to start getting out of our post-election shock and turn frustration into action.
We didn’t get out unscathed last time. The fucker got ~~2~~ 3 SCOTUS appointments and whole mess of lower judges.
No chance we’re fine after this one either.
Three scotus picks
Fuck I forgot.
We're not getting out of this unscathed.
The infighting and arguing is, at best, the grifters trying to secure the best grift for themselves at the expense of everyone else.
No you're right, even if it's just chaos and infighting for the next four years we're all going to suffer
These people are so mature and well adjusted that this could be accomplished by simply walking up to Trump and saying "did you hear what Vance said about you last night?" and then walking up to Vance and saying "did you hear what Elon said about you?" and then asking Elon "did you hear what Don Jr said about you?" No elaboration, let their "imaginations" run wild.
There is probably at least one troll doing exactly that lol
Honestly if I had the influence required id worm my way in just to do that. It emphasizes factionalism and forces them at eachothers throats.
