I had hope that this community would be a place where free thinkers would congregate and have open discussions about political issues. But at first glance it looks like a exact copy of r/politics. I lean left on the political scale but the constant republican/trump bashing is tiresome. Seems like this community has succumbed to the same fate. If I wanted heavy bias, I would just watch any major news station. Any suggestions on communities that discuss politics as a whole? Perhaps with an observatory viewpoint rather than a partisan one.

    Democrats are trying to say “see what good our party has done”. The problem is that the Republicans are shouting “See how bad the other party is” much, much louder.

    Doesn’t matter how much of an adult you are trying to be. The screaming baby on the other side of the room that’s pulling a constant temper tantrum and throwing his toys around wildly is the one that’s going to get the attention.

      In context of this post and the context of this community, that is not the case. Look at the frontpage and tell me that with a straight face.

        It depends on what he meant by “Politics”. I was discussing the state of politics in general in this country. You would be correct if he’s merely talking about the state of this community.
