A community to satirize conservtive and right-wing "ideals".

This community (now) exists as a pressure valve, a place to process through humor the often frustrating world of conservative politics. Above all, this is NOT the place for serious conservative support/viewpoints/arguments. There are other places on Lemmy for that if you desire it.

Rules:

  1. Always follow .world instance rules

  2. Parody With Purpose: This is a space for humorous takes on conservative politics. We welcome satire, but draw the line at content that promotes racism, sexism, homophobia, or other forms of bigotry.

  3. Memes Over Manifestos: This community focuses on humor and parody, not serious political debate. There are plenty of spaces for earnest conservative discussion, this isn’t one of them.

  4. Highlight Contradictions: Sometimes the best content points out inconsistencies and hypocrisies in conservative talking points. Creative commentary is encouraged.

  5. Public Figures Fair Game: Politicians and pundits can be satirized, but no targeting of private individuals, doxxing, or harassment.

Children of public figures under the age of 14 are also off-limits, a 16 year old has enough free agency to break with or adopt their parents views. An 8 year old kid doesn't.

  1. No News Zone: Memes only, news or other serious content should be sent to the nearest relevant comm. Meme's of current events, however, are encouraged.

  2. Clear Satire: Make your satirical intent reasonably clear. We’re here to mock bad ideas, not accidentally spread them. If you're unsure how it will be taken, feel free to DM the mod team ahead of time or explicitly tag it as satire in the body.

A note on ChadMcTruth: Chad's content is 100% satire, but his work can sometimes be hard to tell, but if he posted it be assured, its satire.

  1. Relevant Content: All posts should relate to conservative politics or ideologies in some way somewhere in your post. Either in the title or the meme itself.

For more general political memes please see !politicalmemes@lemmy.world

  1. Community Respect: Disagree with fellow members all you want, but personal attacks aren’t welcome. Save the criticism for the ideas, not each other.

  2. Moderation Discretion: Mods will use reasonable judgment in applying these rules. We’ll be fair, but firm. These kinds of comms have a tendency to get off the rails, so we might seem overzealous in moderation sometimes.

  3. For the moment, i'm allowing properly tagged NSFW content as long as its funny and relevant. Don't make me regret it.

And above all, HAVE FUN!

I am officially a mod of !conservative@lemmy.world ! What does that mean?

It means that this comm will be transitioning into a satire of conservatives comm, please look to what's been posted the last week or so for an idea of what I mean. I have purged the "serious" content (Yes that does mean some *anti-*conservative content was purged as well) for the past 2 weeks or so. I'll be continuing with time to purge it all.

I have decided against banning the right-wing users who've been posting the "serious" misinformation content from before this post because, unlike some conservatives, I don't believe in retroactive punishment when the rules change.

(To those users this post is the official warning, no trolling, no serious content or conservative supporting comments.

Continuing to post such content after the time this post is live will result in bans.)

Do watch your step during re-construction! Below is a draft set of rules that I had posted in my LW support request post, feel free to propose any suggestions! (The side bar has yet to be updated)

  1. Parody With Purpose: This is a space for humorous takes on conservative politics. We welcome satire, but draw the line at content that promotes racism, sexism, homophobia, or other forms of bigotry.

Don't worry @fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com I havent forgotten you, just got to get things organized out and settled

(I might be chronically online to some, but I still have IRL things to attend to lol)

Finally, I'll be getting in contact with other instance admins that may have blocked this comm for their instance from when it was "serious", I already know lemmy.blahaj.zone is one. But please lmk of any others you're aware of!

For now, I will allow tasteful, on topic and tagged NSFW. Just don't let it get out of hand.

Welcome to the new !conservative@lemmy.world everyone! Have fun!

He seems to feel that his "hardcore conservatism" is relevant to a discussion about assault and cries like a baby talking about watching the news "and knowing this country is fucked."

See the limited ability to reason about issues on full drunken display. He's either a tough guy or a whining child, as most / all conservatives tend to be. Without the security of his macho bravado, everything crumbles to pieces.

I read the rules and I think this is allowed. If not, please remove it and apologies for the error.

Tha Lord and Trump hath blessed our paths and cleared them of the evil machine. No more DEI can be projected from the screen into your eye brains. Now, we can all get Great Truths from the state newspaper and stare at each other in the evenings.

Maybe we could have the government and him get together and have a discussion about it. Probably need some sort of impartial mediator to sit in too. Since Garcia doesn't have a wealth of knowledge about what's legal and illegal we could also have some one there to advise him in these matters.

I just think every person should be able to present their side of the story, ya know.

As far as the topic goes, it's fucking stupid as always. You have to destroy your laws and government because your laws and government don't address a problem you don't like??

Fuck off. You write new laws or change them, like the bipartisan immigration bill biden wanted to pass but trump killed.

Fucking imbeciles want to do politics but can't fucking think better than a dog with severe depression.

Seriously, the gop killed that bill because they can't lose this issue. Not until they place their supreme leader who has the authority to murder all of them because they are absolutely psychotic.
