20 years old, no job, far right and emotional unstable. I think we got the perfect candidate!

Although, I am curious what gave you that impression? Same with the emotionally unstable part.

“They’re not christofascists, they’re Christian moralists” ^^1 is a disturbingly far right position post Charlottesville, Dobbs, and all the state laws persecuting trans people that have been passed recently.

I will say, I haven’t seen a moderation level action yet that seems horribly wrong, but I feel like that’s only going to be a matter of time

^^1 Paraphrased, not a direct quote

e; I apparently can’t figure out superscript text

The Charlottesville people are largely fascists, but they also don’t have that much influence in American politics. Dobbs is not a fascist position. I personally support abortion access- but there is nothing in the Constitution to protect it. As for state laws persecuting trans people I actually have looked that much into what’s passed, I’ve just seen rhetoric. Can you point me to some of the laws that’re chrisofascist?

Yeah I guess. I’ve only been able to get internships- good internships. But I’ve never been able to get a real job

Maybe I misinterpreted that.

What’s with all the comments about closing public schools and calling clearly fascist movements as “christian moralists”.

I see you are a @aidan fan. Here is the thing, we all will have different interpretations of political viewpoints. This isn’t a open forum for only progressives, conservatives, liberals, moderates, or whatever, it is a shared forum open to different perspectives. You don’t have to agree or disagree with anyone’s points, but we are one community and everyone’s voice can be heard (as long as it doesn’t violate the rules or lemmy.world TOS). That is why having aiden is a great asset to the team. Moderators are rarely liked, but we value his commitment to growing the community and providing insight and perspective.

Currently working a good internship. Also, talk about stalking!

Edit: I also never advocated closing public schools. I advocated making them voluntary.

Edit 2: I have also been offered a few jobs but are not feasible for me since I want to live near my partner.

Create post

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!
