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.

So empty is this void where complaints should be... It might just be perfect to practice my new hobby.

Yodelay yodelay

Eehoo ehoo

Yodelay yode- ehoo ay eehoo

Oh yodelay ehhooo yodelah ehhoo*

Ah eehoo

Marvelous. The acoustics of this void are perfect. I'm going to be here a while. You can stay if you want but don't be critical. I'm still learning and practicing.

No better place to yodel than an empty echo chamber!

My thoughts exactly. The acoustics are amazing and the rent is free.

You're never a loser if you never admit you're wrong - no matter how high the evidence piles up just keep faking it 'till you make it, or until it doesn't matter anymore.

It is deeper than "never a loser"

I've always tried to admit I was wrong as soon as I realized it. Admitting your wrong gets you massive amounts of respect in life. Honestly I'd say admitting a mistake gets you more respect than actually being right in the first place.

It might be a little late in the game for trump supporters to get "more respect" than never going with trump at all... I'm just speaking in general. People respond very very well to "I messed up, I know that now"

Edit: in the professional world I've many times taken blame for mistakes I didn't even do. When the boss is waiting for the culprit to stand up and no one is "sorry that was me, I just thought yada yada yada" the boss respects you more and the person you took the bullet for is now your best ally.

Edit 2: on the evil side of that. If you fuck up bad enough you don't want to get caught you have that gaslight in your pocket "I've always come clean when it was me. I've always taken my lumps for my mistakes. i would tell you if it were me. You know that"
