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.

Something funny is going on at Lemm.ee. The admin is suddently ban hammer happy too.

That and all the mods removed from here is kinds strange.

Anyone have any word on what's up and why the drastic changes in attitude and all of the sudden bans?

**EDIT: **Actually I think I found the reason: https://lemm.ee/post/55846636/18367529 (!meta@ lemm.ee "It seems some higher level moderation of communities may be required")

Lemm.ee is a bunch of new admins, so it's not longer as friendly to differing opinions as it once was.

Which a bunch of Lemmy Democrats are gonna cheer and advertise about.

Probably a good idea for us to find a new conservative community.

Don't let them silence you, guys. We should just move--not run away. Running away is what they want us to do.

EDIT: I'm not defending Nazi's or Nazi salutes. I didn't see the post and I haven't seen any describe it other than "it was a Nazi salute!" Does anyone want to actually describe the post? What did it say? Was it a meme? Was it Musk? Was it a random pic?

I'm defending Nazi's or Nazi salutes.

Accidental honesty, lmao?

The fact that, upon learning literal Nazism is the reason behind this, you turn around and say, "Now hold on, let's get the facts, good people on both sides, let's find a new place, blah blah blah," kinda tells the whole story.

Thanks for the catch. Fixed.

Fat fingers, not "accidental honesty."

conservative communities are highly sensitive to anything that goes against the echo chamber

Maybe they shouldn’t have left literal nazi salutes on their front page

Hi.

The admin is suddenly ban hammer happy too.

The only person who was banned is the one who posted the Nazi salute picture.

Lemm.ee is a bunch of new admins, so it’s not longer as friendly to differing opinions as it once was.

Lemm.ee has a single new admin (JuiceMachine). The rest of us have been here for over a year and the decision to de-mod this community is not a new idea. We are not removing the community at this time, we just feel it has not been effectively moderated to fit in with Lemm.ee's rules. We want to observe how things go and take further action if needed.

Today was a learning experience for you.

[–] barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf -1 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

No, I already know how much Lemmy hates differing opinions. I just won't post to that community. I found plenty of other communities to post to. It's no loss to me.

Shouldn’t you be impersonating other accounts?

I for one love the conservative communities on lemmy and don't block them.

That way, I can block the users that post the content and not have to see them anywhere else.

My favorite part might be that every comment wintermute ever left is GONE. Maybe it was a personal choice, maybe his tail is between his legs and he ran. Either way, Lemmy is a better place now. Thank you admins!

"differing opinions"

I mean I know you guys love playing victim, but holy shit.

Probably a good idea for us to find a new conservative community.

Yeah, you should probably leave. There are multiple racist cesspool social media platforms you'd feel at home with. Hell, one is run by the President and another is run by the de facto President. Plus, you guys have the largest fake news cable network in the nation. Why are you feeling so persecuted? Oh right, that whole victim complex you guys got going on.

I mean, come on. Your daddy is in. He's here with his "concepts of plans" to deconstruct our federal government and re-organize it to empower our oligarchs and erase the middle class. You should be happy. You're on top of the world right now. Well, the oligarchs are. You're just kind of rooting for them from the gutter. A cheerleader of sorts.

Running away is what they want us to do.

No, it's just what you're good at. Stay cucked out there.

The mods were all delicate trolls. Maybe the admins had had enough of their bullshit?

Running away is 100% what I would like you to do. As a community, each of you individually, whatever makes you feel better or gets you farther away.

Leaves a literal Nazi celebration post up for days

Admins have enough and removes the mods to take control
