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!

Idiot from earlier today.

Appease them harder, daddy. It solves everything!

So you managed to post the propaganda with high visibility, under the guise of being against it. Well done!
That makes absolutely no sense.
So why did you feel the need to show a post that parrot Russian propaganda?
Are you not aware that parroting it, means you are helping spreading it?
Are you dense? It merely shows what the poster is talking about. How is it that everyone else understood it?
If you mean by pointing out how stupid of an opinion it is and how it's clearly propaganda, then yea.
Problem is you don't do any pointing out of any arguments, you just state it's stupid, which is not an argument.
And then you post the entire propaganda argument. How stupid are you, that you can't see that's stupid. Unless you actually want to spread it?
I'm sorry to call you stupid, but you started it.
Idk what you want from me. If it bothers you that much downvote and move on, you know, like an adult would. Again, you're the only one who has an issue with something that's clearly a non-issue, lol. Too much time on your hands, perhaps?
Ironically, now you're the one derailing the conversation. Lol
Your username isn’t the only thing that stinks in this comment thread.
Found the tankie.
Actually, you found an idiot that didn't read the sentence that precedes the image you shared. I deserve the downvotes, because it is me who stinks
Lol, it's cool, dude. I should've spaced it out more. Respect for owning up to your mistake.
If I gave your post a second glance instead of jumping straight to being snarky I could have avoided looking like an asshat.
It beats the alternative of internet strangers thinking that I'm a fascist, besides to err is human
Hey, it's all good, man.
Or you found the sane person, who can see through a posting of Russian propaganda under the guise of being against it.
Ok, now we found the Tankie
Oh boy, you really are "something". I gave you the benefit of the doubt, but clearly you didn't deserve that.
