A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

Turns out dehumanizing people is not a persuasive way to bring people to your viewpoint, who knew?

Lemmy is a very small echo chamber with a strong bias, but that's ok, I love it anyway

Yeah, I was suprised that Lemmy, which touted itself as such a great alternative to Reddit, was so hateful in its bias.

Sure, some bias is exptected, but the hate and vitriol I received here just because I didn't vote for Harris was crazy. Banned from instances, lied about, followed around by a downvote brigade, people posting stats about me. Like full-on batshit crazy people here.

But I like Lemmy and love the idea of the fediverse. And I hope the hateful bullies here do some soul-searching after tonight's election. Because their hate made me more anti-democrat than I ever was before!

And their bullying didn't make me leave Lemmy. I'm here to stay. :)

The real villain is the first past the post voting system that degenerates into a duopoly

I can agree with that! I'm no fan of the duopoly and that's why I didn't support it with my votes. Even tho Lemmy tried to bully me. And banned me from soooo many instances. lol
