    You know that when they so freely talk qbout left vs. right, it’s not really a thing, or it’s not really important. What they never even dare to mention is ‘class war’ and that’s what they are really afraid of.

    We have to look at the statistical significance of the mean, median, mode and couch fucking in order to get closer to the truth.

    It’s a statistical fact that JD Vance is a lying piece of shit.

    Deaths from far right terrorism outnumbers far left 6:1, from the government’s own reports over the last 30 years. But that was before the Ministry of Propaganda decided to take it down right after the death of Mr. Acceptable Losses.

    “Statistical fact” - as someone forced to teach statistics, whenever a student writes this phrase they lose marks. Any statistical statement is an implication of evidence, not a statement of fact.

      Statistics adds confidence intervals to data. You never get to 100% confidence = fact.

    It’s a statistical fact that 99% of what Couchfucker the First says is a lie. The 1% is reserved exclusively for “Wrong clock right once every full turn” type stuff.

      He knows, but MAGA needs an excuse to do what they will do next according to their plans (Project 25). They are seizing on Kirk’s murder like vultures to justify to the general public the attacks, abuse, and imprisonment they will impose on political opponents.

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!
