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.

Imagine being this level of fragile. You’re depressed, scared, fearful, etc. because the president was elected. A bunch of grown children.

Right? They're a bunch of privileged babies. lmao

Thanks, brother.

I was complaining about Lemmy becoming an echo-chamber and not having enough alternative voices.

So rather than just bitching about it, I became the change I wanted to see, and started posting more. :)

Not surprising. They haven't learned to take care or think for themselves.

Nope. And the Lemmy democrats were so in favor of an echo-chamber that they pushed to ban and remove anyone who didn't worship their every move. Then they were shocked they lost. LMAO

I don't get the echo-chamber thing. Usually that is because you haven't got enough faith in your own arguments. Similar to religious fanatics - opposing their beliefs can get you killed. Everybody makes mistakes and is wrong sometimes and that certainly applies to our governments. Trump will make a bunch of them too, pretty sure the average conservative will not agree with everything he does.

Yeah, I just saw a thread from a few days ago trying to ban me. A big thread from a few weeks ago advocated banning me across the entire fediverse.

All because I post news articles about Trump. I don't write them. And I don't even advocate for everything he does. But I post opinions against the norm, so they wanna ban me!

If ya go to your search bar and search for "I'm Calling For the Fediverse to Ban UniversalMonk" thread, it was posted to [email protected]), you'll see they are mad just because I post about Trump. Even tho I didn't vote for him! And they wanted me posted from the entire fediverse! lmao

Over 300 upvotes. I have a picture of it in my profile. I'd post the link, but I don't know how to link to the article when it's on a different instance.

Like they are working sooo hard to make this an echo chamber.

By the way, I just noticed your instance name.I'm on that instance! Seems more balanced than most!

Well, I think that's a little bad faith. I think if Hitler rose from the dead and took control of America or the UN or something you'd be distressed as well. This is more the result of buying too many media lies for too long than people just straight up not being able to think.

(I struggle to see how someone who gets all their facts and news from CNN or MSNBC aren't able to think as well as people who watch Fox News, the information presented almost always lines up with the narratives they are portraying)

Didn't take long for Hitler to arrive at the party 😊 That is why you need to have a free float of ideas and news. I like X from that perspective. A ton of other viewpoints than mine are presented there in my timeline as well. The left just doesn't seem to be interested in exchanging ideas.

I never block anyone because of his/her opinion unless the person is rude. I truly believe most people want the best for everyone though. They just have different opinions how to achieve that.

Sure, but that didn't happen. I find hilarious that they think that.

Demonrats owned by website that totally never had a front-page section on "black crime". Same website was never run by someone who was an alcoholic but mysteriously never deserved to be homeless. Yep, their opponents are unwell.
