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!

Dear Foreigner,
If you are coming to the US for the world cup you are fucking stupid. You're going to spend thousands of your preferred currency to get harassed by Customs and if you fuck up and get arrested for whatever little thing the police that stops you has up his ass that day you run the risk of ending up in South America or Africa but not the part you are from, in a jail somewhere getting fucked.
Unless you are white, if you're white come on over, have a beer. Remember, though, even if you are Spanish, Italian, Greek, or any of those other darkies you gay commie Europeans call white, you are going to get lumped in with the Mexicans, especially if you speak Mexican or eye tie.
Fuck you, countries full,
XOXO JD 😘 🛋😘 Vance XOXO

bzzt, even white people are getting fucked around with by ICE.
Look everyone knows Germany is just full of immigrants and Muslims so of course they got stopped especially those that come and go from Mexico. Nothing but illegals and fentanyl come out of Mexico.
People willingly went to Qatar for the World Cup. Sports fans are fucking dumb and/or don't give a shit about anything as long as they can see their team play and win. And for those that don't know or forgot, Qatar killed thousands of workers violating human rights and basic safety when building all their stadiums.
Right, but Qatar committed to treating those tourists as guests, and as far as I know, did exactly that, even easing some of their morality laws for the visitors. Attending the Qatar World Cup was unethical, but not stupidly self-endangering. Attending the World Cup in the US under the current situation is stupidly self-endangering, especially if you aren't "white", but also sometimes even then.
Nah we'll arrest random whites too.
Jasmine Mooney was locked up for 11 days, no method of reaching out to the outside world.

She overstayed a prior visa. They will go after white people with any red flags.
I would advise non American white people to stay away though. The current American administration wants to crush your economies and doesn't give a shit about you. How could you justify spending your money there now?
For all people outside the US please take a close look at your subscriptions. Amazon, Netflix, Uber, YouTube, HBO etc. That is all money being funelled into the US. Please also think about where you spend your attention. Looking at Instagram everyday pumps ad revenue into Meta. America has a massive trade surplus with the world when it comes to services. A deliberate effort to unsubscribe from these services would send message.
I'm not saying cut yourself off from the world... But weigh your options.
And any tattoo can and will be interpreted as a gang affiliation. No matter the mental gymnastics required.
Or just photoshop them on poorly like it's 1998 and say you had them.
Only sailors and gang members get visible tattoos and I don't see no boat.
And don't forget that photoshopped tattoos count!
Poorly photoshopped "tattoos".
That wasn't even Photoshop! That was MS Paint.
Name is Jasmine? You ain't fooling me, I've seen Aladdin.
