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.

"The sound of children screaming has been removed"

Some of them were so torn apart by the hail of bullets that they were decapitated and had to be identified by the clothes on their headless bodies.

We speak up for them because they can no longer speak up for themselves.

This is the kind of comment and mindset that cost you the election. This kind of behavior isn't viewed the way you seemingly think it is. Sure, by your close peers maybe. But it comes off as disingenuous because there's no reality that exists where you do anything but type words about it. Maybe protest or something. But absolutely nothing of substance.

There are also OTHER people suffering. Did.. did ya know that?

I've been to several protests. All you see are my words but they are the least of what I've done to try and right the ship. I've called and talked to my representatives at nearly every level. Did.. did ya know that?

Better than sitting behind a computer making up bullshit about the people I disagree with.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I guess that only applies to people YOU disagree with.

Brilliant.

I've mocked an asshole or two for their actual beliefs. I don't tell them what they believe.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'm sure they're VERY sorry they ever crossed you...

I'm not here to make friends.

And you voting to make it worse helps so much more than that person protesting or posting about how fucked up you guys are.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'm just guessing here but I'd wager a huge percentage of the Republicans that voted Trump used to be Democrats. I myself was once.

The party left the people. And the people went were they felt they belonged. In the end, the votes tell the truth. How do you square that with your ideology?

Honest question. No hard feelings here.

Yeah, I don't believe Trump is a legitimate president. I don't believe the numbers reported are accurate, and I don't believe less than a quarter of voting age people should be able to have elected someone that literally has multiple people throwing Nazi salutes up at their rallies. Hard feelings here. Fuck you, and all Trump sycophants. You all can eat shit.

And for the record, I ALSO don't believe your "I myself was once" bullshit.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

I was a Democrat too. Your refusal to believe is part of why your party has lost power.

Your blindness only flies in your own echo chambers.

The downvotes I’ll receive only drive the point home that you do not value information you don’t like, and that is your biggest political weakness.

You never would believe or accept any Republican winning on merrit and that the country agrees with him.

Be honest.

There is no reality that exists where a Republican wins an election fairly, that you'd believe is legitimate.

Ever.

As long as their values don't align with your own, it will never be a legitimate win in your eyes and was rigged.

I can't exactly fault you for feeling this way, to be fair.

I'm only asking you to be honest.

And frankly, Idgf if you don't think I used to be a Dem. That only shows your shortsightedness. At some point, and we're all waiting -

You will realize your values are not the majorities. And you will absolutely have to come to terms with that.

I have accepted every other presidency in my life without question of legitimacy, even if the methods to do so with Bush were dubious at best. That includes Trump's first term.

I'm only asking you to be honest.

No, you're asking me to treat you like you're worth respect. Unfortunately, you are not. Fuck yourself.

So what’s different about this election, that makes you think it was rigged somehow, when all the other ones weren’t?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

Other than cyber security pros warning that there are many indicators of manipulation? Trump literally thanked Elon for his winning Pennsylvania in a "landslide".
