      A-fucking-men. It’s like mainstream media has no nuance, or guts, to report on anything anymore. I feel like Walter Cronkite is doing spins in his grave.

        I miss Mr Cronkite. Is Mr Rather still with us? Can someone move him to safety? We’ll need a calm and objective voice when this is all over.

    This here is the site in question that is used to go after progressive teachers all across America.

    https://www.professorwatchlist.org/

    after the fuck’s death, people have flocked to this site to make people’s lives miserable.

    I’m calling for anyone to DDOS the site and possibly just take it the fuck down.

      I imagine its people who just want to go work, without having cave brained cunts gluing themselves to the road. Or people who dont want their tax money repeatedly going to the same destroyed infostructure over and over again.

      Most of these “anti fascists” are only ever happy when they are disrupting the lives of everyday people. They NEVER go after the rich and shameless that are actually in a position to do something.

        Go around, protests are going to exist and the more that particular love bothers you the more it will happen because it bothers you. Infrastructure i assume and some of the time those “cunts” gluing themselves to roads are protesting just that.

        What makes you say that, let’s have an example. They do that rich people are just harder to annoy because they’re more removed from society.

          Go around… Yeah, thats not really an option, mate. And they do that on purpose. And what “love” are you talking about? Are you, like them, trying to make enemies? Screaming on buses? Breaking into trucks, and cars, and whatever else? You all can go fuck yourselves, if you think annoying people is going to get people on side.

            Yes yes in a country of mostly roads you couldn’t find another road, plausible. You’re complaining about inconvenience.

            I’m not sure what you mean about love? Ed: that’s clearly supposed to be “one” I’ll fix it but everyone else does seem to have figured it out.

            Who, when, give an example instead of ambiguous crimes that happen literally everyday.

                Literally everyone else but you given no one else said anything. What did I fuck up? And you’re aware you “fucked up” too and no one made a big deal about it right?

                That’s specifically not an example, if it’s such a big issue for you why can’t you give a single real world example.

      It’s a bit harsh to say this about someone who gives lectures about fascism (and is therefore kinda doing his part) and who might have received a few death threats by people who probably know where he lives.

      So tell me, what did you do last week to fight fascism?

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!
