US politics almost always gets flagged here. The mods occasionally disable flagging for these discussions. Non-US politics are less likely to get flagged, though.
Mods are complicit mostly because their employers support the fascist shit.
Yes, I mean just look at the post when Trump was elected president. Thousands of comments. This moment is just as important.
"almost" was an important word in my comment. But yes, sometimes (as in not always) they don't get flagged or the mods remove flagging.
There are plenty more examples than this. Trump's assassination attempt and Kirk's murder also stuck around.
Nor was his assassination attempt.
@dang i understand this is prime rage bait material, but i REALLY want to talk about this on my favorite place for discussing things
How do you feel about having a single containment zone-style submission to channel everyone's nervous energies into?
This "seismic shift" has been happening in 90% of midterms since 1946.
It really hasn’t, though. The president’s party reliably loses seats. It doesn’t reliably get annihilated to the point of electing Democratic senators in Kansas.
90% of the time Texas flips?
The last time a Kansas Democrat was elected senator was 94 years ago.
Yeah nah, not the house and the senate. Tell me how many times that has happened.
