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!

Meanwhile... Cancer vaccine!...not to prevent but to cure the sonobabich.
Here the government is fighting the scientists and their discoveries plus they're trying to take away access to the discoveries and re routing our tax money to their own pockets plus to pay for weapons to murder children in other countries.
Its like country enshitification. They figured how to mix the DMV with AI and Nazis.
Honestly, even the DMV has improved in a lot of ways over the years and the reputation it had from the late 1900s doesn't really meet up with my experiences in more recent decades, or at least it did here in Colorado...but that's before these assholes got their hands on things.
Even with Colorado being a blue state, I'm sure the assmunch conservatives have not given up on trying to fuck those of us that didn't vote for their shitty emperor-god, even at the most local level possible.
These people are just hell bent on getting "revenge" on people unlike them trying to live their best lives. When Taco said he was their retribution, that resonates with a lot of very terrible people, and they desperately want others to suffer in all kinds of ways. These are the people that would let Taco take a dump in their mouth if they thought a liberal had to smell it.
