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.

This is some woosh material right here. I am aware they are biased.

"The reds are saying "XYZ" How awful!!!" - Blue

"UVW" - Link to Reds website

My guy, I am aware. The point of linking to aljazeera is to show that they aren't actually saying "XYZ", they're saying "UVW". I'm pointing out that fox News is doing a strawman and supported my point by linking to a pro Palestinian biased source. But evidently that sailed right over your head.

Why would a pro-Palestinian biased source be a more trustable source of explanation on what the slogan means?

Because they're the ones using it.

Instead of using strawman yall could be doing iron men.

Thats not how that works. Qatar is not hamas, they support hamas but ultimately they put themselves first.

When they have an awful plan, theyre going to downplay it.

It's a strawman. I don't know how else to tell you.
