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 not opinion or leftist. It’s news about fighting in the party, which is factual, recent, and on-topic.

Removal of this post is admitting that this sub is only about being a safe space for conservatives to circle-jerk while ignoring reality.

I encourage a discussion about the recent conflicts inside the party, how that might impact the party moving forward, and what can be done to prevent this divide.

We may be heading towards another civil war. While people like to think slavery was the only cause of the war, it was more complicated than that. We have many different cultures and sometimes those cultures collide. I am a small government Republican, which means I support abortion as the government should stay out of an adult's medical care. I am not religious, and I'm not too fond of the mixing of abortion and religion. While I respect religions and do attend mass on occasion, I do not want your sky God dictating what I can do with my body.

The problem is both parties are spewing things that don't really solve anything.

I mean this with no insult. You’re in the wrong party if you want any of those things. And I’m curious, what DO you like about the Republican Party today, and don’t say taxes.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 1 year ago (3 children)

No I’m in the right party. I’m not a rabid racist like the democrats. I’m against large government. I’m against wages theft through taxation.

You know that slavery, kkk we’re all democrat things and still are?

There is nothing positive in me about the democrats.

You must be really old if you can recall a time when democrats discriminated against people based on race. ;-) Parties change. The modern GOP is all about big government, control of people, censorship, and racism.

But, your answer said all I need to know about your actual position.

Thanks

They still do. They just dress it up and call it diversity now-a-days. Just look at college admissions for a good example.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What about college admissions?

Well, I think college admission should be done entirely by a computer, that simply takes that person‘s transcripts and accomplishments, and what not, to decide if they are accepted. Not human interaction.

But I can understand how a white person might feel disappointed if they had to go to a less convenient college because their first pick didn’t have any more slots.

I suppose we should be sure the balance of men and women isn’t taken into consideration too?

What about scholarships based on financial need? If a college wanted to accept a certain number of people on scholarships per year, that might cut the open slots for wealthy while males.

Not just white people, Asians are the most affected by Affirmative Action.

I know it's not possible to be perfect (There are idiots and assholes in every large group, including college admissions), but imo effort should be made to be race and sex blind. Right now, effort is being made to the opposite.

According to whom? Both of these things have always been far right ideologies. Are you forgetting the two main parties switched in name a century ago?

The KKK's still around, and when they march, they don't march with Democrats.

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

Still democrats.

Hell even the Neo Nazi supporter Biden for o president.

Which guy said a neo-Nazi rally had "good people on both sides?"

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

Who was endorsed by the leader of the Neo-Nazi party.

https://gazette.com/opinion/editorial-a-racists-endorsement-of-biden-comes-as-no-surprise/article_4058411e-e6f8-11ea-a8d2-633192d81b82.html

Who didn’t want their children in a racial jungle?

Who told black people they weren’t black if they didn’t vote him.

How racist are you not to see the party is racist?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Richard Spencer is the neo-Nazi who started the rally I just fucking asked about! The rally called "Unite the right." He's a right-wing crank - he fucking came up with the term alt-right.

Jesus fuck, this crank opinion piece really tries saying the Nazi who runs a right-wing propaganda campaign and promoted a right-wing rally for other Nazis is totes mcgoats sincere and logical when he claims he's not right-wing. Guys. Nazis like you. Any time they claim to be socialist - they immediately start murdering actual socialists.

Do you need a fucking diagram for why an ideology that hates queer people, academia, and feminism keeps showing up at your events?

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

I am not a Nazi troll.

The Nazis supported Biden. Spencer endorsed Biden. Let that sink in.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Spencer's a right-wing troll. And a fucking Nazi.

Spencer created the brand that the Republican party endorsed.

When that sneering bigot says 'actually I'm left-wing,' that is literally what the Nazis did. And you still fall for that?

What a worthless conversation.
