Rules:

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.

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.

No, no, we can't stop fascism in the US by voting them out of office

You literally can't. Did you forget that biden was elected after trump? Where did that lead you, back to fascism.

We were close to stopping Trump 2. We'll see how well we can cripple his power in the mid-terms.

Didn't and can't are not the same thing. Literally.

Cool, then you'll get 4 more years of 99% Hitler instead of 100% Hitler, and next republican 101% Hitler will be elected in the following elections. Fascism is structural and rooted deeply in the institutions at this point, you literally cannot vote it out.
