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.

That goes for everyone. Basically all of my comments here get downvoted to some extent. It's ultimately used as a disagree button, so why should I bother caring what happens with it?

Never said you should care. Just my take on why it happens

Because most people disagree with conservativism, especially on the internet where people have freedom of information/anonymity.

Then, leave America.

America wasn’t founded by liberals. You may already know that

Then, leave America.

Maybe one day, but not today.

America wasn’t founded by liberals.

I disagree with that sentiment, as many of the founding fathers were progressives in at least some way or another. Progressivism just looked a lot different back then. And depending on the definition, all of the founding fathers could be considered progressives of their time.

But even if what you're saying is true, so what? Why should I care?

Hell yeah, it's good to have an outsider in politics.
