politics doesn't ban people for posting anti-clinton article. hell, it keeps getting posted every day by trolls and other trump supporters. it's just that the base is overwhelmingly liberal, but not in a circlejerky sense, in a more reality is liberal sense. i'm amazed you can look at the discourse in t_d and politics and think they're the same, just rightwing and leftwing respectively.
let's look at the top comments of the top articles posted today, just for kicks.

Poll: Most say this is the lowest point in US history
I remember Nixon, and it feels pretty similar. at least Nixon's supporters could acknowledge reality eventually., They weren't as cultish and vile, at least publicly. But he did call Watergate essentially "fake news" and claim the media was unfair to him pretty often as well. he behaved like an adult in public at least and took his consequences like a man....until he was pardoned.....that shit still pisses me off 40 years later
mostly fact, imo.
Schumer fires back at Trump: ‘I guess it's not too soon to politicize a tragedy’

Former Mexican ambassador says State Department is telling world leaders to stay at Trump hotels
Totally not a major ethics violation.
OK, sarcastic, but one comment down is this more important piece of information.
“Trump’s new downtown DC hotel has hosted embassy events for Azerbaijan and Kuwait, who switched to the Trump hotel from their original booking at the Four Seasons. The hotel hosted an annual conference sponsored by the Turkish state last month — a conference that in previous years was habitually held at the Ritz Carlton. And, since Trump’s election, a Saudi-backed lobbying campaign spent around $270,000 at the hotel for lodging and catering costs.”
Bar Association declares Omaha attorney Steve Grasz 'not qualified' for 8th Circuit Court of Appeals seat
Omaha attorney Steve Grasz faces a rockier road to the federal bench after the American Bar Association on Monday deemed him not qualified and questioned his ability to set aside ideological convictions to decide cases fairly. That assessment was based in part on evaluating Grasz’s writings, as well as more than 200 interviews with people in a position to evaluate his professional qualifications, according to a statement by the bar association. “Many questioned whether Mr. Grasz would be able to detach himself from his deeply held social agenda and political loyalty to be able to judge objectively, with compassion and without bias,” according to the statement by Pam Bresnahan, chairwoman of the American Bar Association’s Standing Committee on the Federal Judiciary.
just a quote, but okay, maybe something useful. not partisan, and useful, imo.

Imam: I Warned De Blasio About NYC Terror; He Was Too Busy Bashing Trump (DEPLORABLE!) (from infowars)
De Blasio was too busy traveling to Germany to conspire with antifa and isis on how to take down Trump.
complete bullshit circlejerking.
The media guidelines on how to cover a terrorist attack.
Usually by Day 3PM we'd hear about a mosque that had bacon thrown at it or an incorrectly drawn swastika spray painted on a door, only to be found to be a hoax by day 5.
again, bullshit circlejerking. not sure what's the point of posting stuff like that there.
Just a reminder that all Muslims read the same Koran (MOTIVES UNCLEAR)
Do not hanker for peace with the infidels, behead them when you catch them.
err, not sure what's going on here. some poorly constructed image memes. not high quality discourse. could be done better.
Moment protesters interrupt live Anderson Cooper broadcast of the New York terrorist attack chanting '"fake news" and waving a banner saying "CNN is ISIS" (DRAIN THE SWAMP)
Drinking some covfefe and watching CNN get owned on live TV. Good start to the day.

i think i've proved my point, do you disagree?
