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!

Do not post gore without some sort of NSFW or spolier mark.
For the people downvoting you.
On a regular basis, when Italian partisans killed Germans or blew up bridges, Mussolini ordered 10 or so from their village killed. Pregnant women, children, didn't matter.
After an attack on an empty german car (no german casualties), 15 partisans were executed on a square, their corpses left to rot for the rest of the day under the sun. That is the square they transported Mussolinis corpse to, together with the corpses of his lover and fifteen other fascists.
The square is now known the fifteen martyrs square after the dead partisans. Although many in Italy now probably call it so for the dead fascists.
Person who ordered the killing later worked for the CIA and the german version of the FBI.
My mother's village of 800 people, they hung partisans from each corner of the town square. Regularly. It was stressful and fucked up for a little kid, and my grandfather was a partisan.
I imagine people are downvoting due to the non-spoilered gore pic thrust onto our screens with no warning, rather than the text content.
This is what democracy looks like
Violence is periodically required to maintain it, yes, but if the effort is to succeed there are always many types of people involved, including some who have no stomach for violence. Insisting that everyone partake in violence, or using it to sadistically goad comrade non-combatants, is a common form of hazing that should never be tolerated.
Good point
Oh this must've been before they strung his carcass up upside down
You know it's in a fancy mausoleum these days? Under guard?
It would be justice if that cursed shit hole were leveled to the fucking ground and then the soil burned and poisoned.
The wildest bit of unnecessary censoring I’ve ever seen…
