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!

the america the majority of americans want. sickening
Now we have both the middle east and the middle west
The middle finger
But no more middle class
Don't say that, the concept of the middle class is so that the poor people thing they have more money than other people and won't revolt
Who knew preventing a revolution was as easy as tying survival to a car payment?
The important part is to make your subscription to your car and your subscription to your house a big enough part of your pay check, so that you are afraid if you use too much electricity your budget for your food will not be enough. For everyone else make sure they need Netflix, HBO, YouTube premium, reddit coins, and every thing else to get into the same situation
Then make it so you are afraid to lose your job because you can't save up for a rainy day fund.
Then be afraid of the rain
Now the rest is slowly boiling the frog, so you are used to it
*Majority of voting Americans
Not voting is a choice. Those 40% didn't give a shit.
Those 40% are Nazi sympathizers. Or Nazi simps, if you will.
At the very minimum they are ok with Nazis so long as they don’t directly impact them, or they don’t think they will be directly impacted by them
Yep, that's a sympathizer.
I am legit debating about quitting my job because my supervisor (in NJ) said that he didn’t vote because he didn’t like either candidates, he felt his Christian values were not embodied by either of the candidates. I just wanted to be like “bitch, how about at least vote against someone who spits at those values”. Up until now I respected him, I thought he was knowledgeable at work and just assumed that he would be knowledgeable about outside world too.
More like 22% when you look at the numbers. 40% of the electorate could give two shits who runs the country.
And people need to stop giving that 40% a free ride. They also wanted this. Fuck them.
We have the same issue in Ontario where our conservative leader Doug Ford won a majority with like 19% of Ontarians actually voting for him. This means for the majority of Ontarians they were comfortable sitting at home fingering their grandma. So fuck them yes they did want this.
They care, they just don't know.
That's on them at this point
They're equally culpable.
A slim majority of voters. 68 million to 73 million last I checked. Not even a third of the population.
71MM to 74MM as of right now on CNN. Trump nearly the same number of votes he got in 2020, within ~30k or so.
5.5 million out of over 300 million is hardly a majority.
More like 74.2 millions out of over 231 millions eligible to vote. Still not a majority, but the 86 millions who didn't vote are at least complicit. And 160 millions are a majority.
