SE Hoya Containment Thread (aka Politics)
Welcome to the Official SE Politics Thread. The aim here is for high quality political discussion and debate. The concomitant aim here is for that high quality discussion and debate to NOT devolve into MAD posting, BAD posting, trolling, name-calling our community fracture.
We embark on this project hoping to encourage fair and thorough exchanges of views, and also fair and thorough advocacy for positions. We should learn a lot.
Rules
1. Posters are required to have 50 posts in SE over the last 365 days. This thread is not a proxy for the Politics forum, or an arena for goal-based issue advocacy from people we don't even know.
2. Pure devil's advocacy will not be tolerated unless it is identified by that poster as the aim of the particular post. There will be no run of the mill nitpickery for the sake of nitpickery.
3. This will be enforced loosely, but you are obligated to outline your basic position on whatever issue you're debating. We will not have loaded, gotcha-style internet-standard race to the bottom terrible posting in this thread. That does not mean you have to state every closely-held belief in every debate. You just can't hide the ball. "I'm not sure what my position is" is a completely valid position to hold.
4. Insults are out. You will not resort to that in this thread, because that will ruin this thread.
5. If you demonstrate an ongoing commitment to lowering the quality of discourse through incessant trolling or simply being really terrible, you'll be removed from this thread.
6. These are subject to significant revision as this thread develops.
There is a tradition in SE of better, fuller, funnier discussion of a really wide range of topics. Let's continue that here.
go easy...he's an idiot
wait ..... so you guys do want 4 more years of brandon? lol
Absolutely not, I'm saying it was ridiculous to criticise economic policy after two days of stocks going down.
lol
Jokes on them I was only pretending
i said 4 more years about a racist skeleton who already dropped out of the race ..... it's not my fault, man
but if i was making a serious post about the economy (which a lot of ppl seem to hate rn) i'd probably say something about how the stock market isn't a great indicator of its strength and health and whatnot
While referring to bidenomics straight after the dip in the market lol
cry more lol
Nah I'm good, you can go back to lol just jokes guyz now
GENOCIDE!!!!!!!1
i'm sorry that australian bidenbro is such a stupid and sad existence, but again it's not my fault
Hey be happy guy, stonks are back up!
lol melon usk
Musk is just abusing the courts as always. Would be really cool if we had Federal Anti-SLAPP laws
I am morbidly curious to what extent Ellen will use Xformerlyknownastwitter to put his thumb on the scale over the next few months
Probably woulda been more impactful if he didn’t, you know, kill Xformerlyknownastwitter, but still, not inconsequential
guy is as dumb as meatball ron, not realizing that with money/power you can bully a lot of people yeah, but not giant corporations, especially over some pure bullshit
so yeah can't wait to see what dumb **** he does next, my religion is praying for his downfall
Free SRM, he ain't even...well, actually yeah, he probably did something, but still #FreeSRM
Also, putting Biden on Night 1 at light midnight is certainly a choice. Put him on in prime time, let him speak for 20 minutes of "Thank you Joe" chants and keep the good feelings rolling. Don't keep grandpa up past his bedtime. Did we learn nothing??
genocide grandpa simpson at it again? can't wait to see clips of that later
yeah he went too hard in the paint on the resident fascist troll of the poli**** forum, got a week off for good behavior :( #freedagoat
Sup dus
Ya that SRM guy probably deserved it but something something values and logic
Spoiler
yhtsi
Biden not coming out to Roman Reigns' "Head of the Table" music and Titantron is a real missed opportunity.
Bonus points if he jokes about wanting the nomination just because Trump talked about it.
Biden ripped an absolute GAGGER of Adderall tonight. We got SOTU Biden, not debate Biden. Thank ****.
Sup dus

i like the cut of this guy's jib ... how you feel about the kc chefs, frand?
1. didn't that happen a while ago now?
2. i'm sure she's given pointless speeches at these things before
3. anyway yeah i guess she's the man now dawg because instead of crying @ kids in cages she's now 👍ing genocide, really showed everybody ¯\_(ツ😉_/¯
4. literally who tf is that polish shitlib?
