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!

Are you saying there's a profit motive behind his push to round up 3000 immigrants per day? I can't believe it! /s

[–] athairmor@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I honestly don’t think profit is his motive. It’s more of a side bet.

Hurting people is his motive. His big payoff is feeling in control of someone else’s pain.

Nazi leads Nazi business Nazi government agency uses.

Got it

Apartheid Peter Thiel, Nazi Apartheid Elonazi, and Stephen Miller all of a kind in a mutual circle jerkfest...

Pfft... who'da guessed.

Palantir's AI thinks like Donnie and it is code named Orange.

No, I’d be extremely shocked if every Republican politician didn’t have a huge stake in that company. That’s the point of being republican, right? To get the skinny in the latest scam?

Yeah, well, this is it. A giant skim, straight into their pockets.

[–] tisktisk@piefed.social 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I thought it was palantir?

[–] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

You mean he actually does cum on the steamer of thiels sauna?

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

He's also sending his wife in to seduce the boss of palantir, while he sits in a chair in the corner and watches.

[–] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Why wouldn’t he? It’s not like Americans are going to do anything about it.

[–] dinren@discuss.online 0 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Canadians are Americans too.

[–] FaceDeer@fedia.io 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The word "American" has come to mean "Inhabitant of the United States of America." You should use "North American" instead if you want to include both Americans and Canadians.

[–] dinren@discuss.online 2 points 2 days ago

I think using the country name is more appropriate

[–] BetaBlake@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No one calls Canadians Americans, and they wouldn't want to be called Americans.

[–] dinren@discuss.online 1 points 2 days ago

Canadians are Americans regardless of their preference.

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

C'mon Canada. We're depending on you to help us out in a clutch!

[–] dinren@discuss.online 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I’m actually not in Canada. I just want people to start saying United States instead of America because it’s rude to literally half of the planet haha

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I've been downvoted to oblivion before for suggesting there are two whole continents that consist of "Americans"

[–] dinren@discuss.online 1 points 2 days ago

Shit, I’d say there’s South America, middle America, United States, and Northern America.

[–] Wazowski@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

I think long, far OTM PLTR puts might make sense.
