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.

Do you honestly think you're bringing reason to this place?

[–] [email protected] -3 points 9 months ago (2 children)

I mean if he does, it's just further proof of how full of shit he is, since even in this thread he's peddling the same gun violence bs that's been disproven to him numerous times. He doesn't care about reason, he cares about advancing his lies

Then there is no answer you guys would possibly accept. If I say yes, it's proof of my guilt. If I say no, it's proof of my guilt.

Honesty is a trait that escapes you thoroughly.

Glad you agree that no matter what you try and lie about, your guilt is obvious to anyone with a brain

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

That's not what I said. Yet again, you show how dishonest you are.

Being real, hes done a lot to my mental state. On reddit, I would have similar arguments, usually about guns. I thought I was educating people, or at least getting them to actually think critically about their positions.

Nope, I wasnt educating or doing anything good, turns out I was just wasting my time.

Its not just him either, theres a few lefties that I've noticed that do the exact same shit.

I blocked him. I can only handle so much troll in a day.

"Thing I don't like" = troll

[–] [email protected] -4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

There's a easy solution to this problem

[–] [email protected] -2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'm very aware, and its as tempting as ice cream in hell. I get why a lot of mods go bad now. But I want to avoid being a power tripping mod, and thats why he remains unbanned.

It's not a power trip to remove people who do nothing but degrade the community

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It is however extremely difficult to cleanly judge whether someone is degrading a community.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It's only difficult when you're part of the problem

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

It’s only difficult when you are willing to recognize the difficulty in detecting someone else’s intentions.

Equating certainty with correctness is a hallmark of fanaticism.

I blocked him. I lost nothing of value.
