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.

If all you consume is right wing propaganda then yes, the dismantling of all our civic protections and the complete disregard of the Constitution by the executive branch and all the negative impacts on local communities and farmers that depended on aid now gone would seem like paradise as you wouldn't even know it's happening. You just get some vague "we're eliminating wasteful spending!" Without any definition as to what was wasteful.

Since when does the Executive branch have the right to ignore the Judiciary? Biden didn't. He tried the executive order to allow studen loan forgiveness and got smacked down by the courts so it didn't happen.

Trump gets a ruling he doesn't like and suddenly Elmo musk and Vance are doing some "judicial overreaching" dance. Literally stating "Judges aren’t allowed to control the executive’s legitimate power.”

They have legitimate power to issue an executive order, they do not have legitimate power to have that executive order violate the constitution. That's the whole point of the Judiciary to combat against. They don't have the legitimate power to fire inspector generals on the spot, without notice or following the rules around how that process happens, those that are literally there to watch out for fraud and illegality. As per Republican Chuck Grassley

Feels a bit like the free market. I like it.

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

free market doesnt really exist. otherwise brands wouldnt be forced to ditch equality because a fascist is president. we would be able to buy cheap evs from china, because free market.

its a fictitious ideal thrown into our faces to distract us from the reality of living under a corporate oligarchy. like the american dream... its a fantasy that doesnt exist.

I agree that the tariffs are a bad idea. Thomas Sowell has explained that very well in basic economics.

I still think this government is so much better than the previous one though. Someone needed to stop the endless growth of bureaucracy. Hopefully it will be cut dramatically before mid term.

What bureaucracy?

This country is so deregulated that I don't even have to get my car inspected to renew its registration.

We'll let wasteful shits roll coal in their jalopies that end up abandoned on the side of the road when they break down, but we don't allow foreign competition? Make it make sense, lol~

If you're happy about mass deportations, you're genuinely a fascist

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 week ago (2 children)

*mass deportions of illegal immigrants

And I wish fascist wasn't so watered down, it's an useless word

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Nah, it's pretty accurate here.

You know we know this is a sock puppet, right? The highest subscriber count on your instance is 5 people and you posted this right with the meme.

If you want to do it believably you have to put some effort into it, not this weak ass bot comment stuff. Then let it sit for a little bit for deniability.

This is basic stuff, man. It's embarrassing.

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

You're wrong. Knowing exactly who I am, I take this comment as further proof that this place is full of idiots.

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

"this place is full of idiots."

That checks out as it is a conservatives site.

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

We were talking about Lemmy - still funny though. 😀 👍 Beats all the usual Marxist crap.

Anything that isn’t far left to them must be fake because they are really that delusional. No wonder they lost the election so bad. They literally lost every single swing state

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

They need to leave their bubble and explore other ideas. They are like cows that continuously chew on the same opinion. Only a few of them are currently interesting. Only Jon Stewart and Bill Maher come to mind.

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

Couldn’t agree more. They sound like crazies to any normal person. On the bright side I see more and more normal people on Lemmy every day

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Good job we're all convinced you aren't talking to yourself. 🙄
