A community for some conservative points of view. You can comment but not post articles, because there are bad-faith posters who want to post horrible content just to get people in trouble.

Rule 0: Serial downvoters who downvote out of hate and don't interact with the community will be banned.

πŸƒπŸŒ» Rule 1: Kindly be empathetic and kind to others. Trolling and spamming will not be tolerated. Making the community a friendly & supportive place is our goal.

All of us are here for a short lifetime. Let’s have a nice time here and avoid negativity. :)

Please be respectful, even if you don't agree.

Don't personally attack people. Don't call them names.

Be grown-ups.

your personal definition of β€œwoke” is something you feel too ashamed to share in public for some reason…

I'm not ashamed at all. If you don't know what "woke" means, then you are the one with the problem.

[–] knightly@pawb.social 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I know how I use the term on the rare occasion it is called for, it's your personal definition and therefore your own honor that is at stake here.

[–] barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf -1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

herefore your own honor that is at stake here.

lololol Say wat, mate?! lolololol

Dude, go outside. Try talking to women. Or men. But something. You really need to realize that lemmy is not real life or that important.

My "own honor" lolololololol

It's really funny of you to say that today, of all days, when I'm literally sitting between the married couple I'm dating while we sell handcrafted art to festival goers in the state capitol. XD

So go on then, if it isn't important, explain what "woke" means to you.

I’m literally sitting between the married couple I’m dating

Riiiiighhhtt. lololol

Do you want a picture? Or are you just trying to avoid defining "woke" and thereby making an ass out of yourself?

[–] barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 0 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

I don't have to define anything. Especially to you. If you don't know what a word or concept means, then I can't help you. So go on in your make believe cuck relationship. Do you get this obsessed about everything in your life? The fact that you take Lemmy so seriously is really funny to me. What's it like? You live a life where the smallest slights irritate you enough that you get obsessed about them. Is it tiring?

[–] knightly@pawb.social 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Of course you don't have to. Your choice not to is just as telling~.

And you've completely misunderstood what sort of person I am. I like arguing about politics and terminology. I'm not taking you seriously, otherwise I'd have taken offense at your assumption that my polyfamily is a cuckold situation. On the contrary, I'm having fun. Are you?

I like arguing about politics and terminology.

I don't. I think it's boring af. You're way too obsessed about this. Move on.

[–] knightly@pawb.social 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You're the one that revived a month-old thread, buddy. XD

[–] barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf -1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Meh, I was on vacation and was just going down list and replying to all of my messages. Guess I didn't pay attention and realize that you were a chronically online obsessed Lemmy politics fan. I now take you even less seriously. Which is a good thing. Because Lemmy isn't ever gonna be a thing that lasts. lol

[–] knightly@pawb.social 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And? Since when did the ephemeral nature of language make our conversations any less consequential? Doesn't that make it more important to explain what we mean while we have the chance?

[–] barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I still don't care. But keep asking! Maybe I'll change my mind! Because our constant back and forth makes this community more active so more people can see the community and the posts and it will stay on top of the feeds. So you're helping out! So go on, ask again....

[–] knightly@pawb.social 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Sure, buddy. I bet there is lots of call among "the community" for pedantic assholes like me who ask questions that you aren't comfortable answering. I'm sure your feelings are bouyed by all this "fresh" activity. XD

[–] barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

you aren’t comfortable answering.

I'm totally comfortable answering. The very fact that you don't think I am means you automatically sense that it must mean something terrible to me and you want your gotcha moment. I know what you are trying to do, and I won't play your game. But keep replying so this community stays very visible to Lemmy. :) So go on. Ask again

[–] knightly@pawb.social 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm totally comfortable answering.

If that were the case, you could have done so, just to prove me wrong, at any point in the last month. XD

[–] barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf -1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

once again, you are making yourself way too important in this dialogue. I don't care what you say at all. i just want you to keep posting so that this sub stays visible. So go on ask agan

[–] knightly@pawb.social 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Lol, any chance of my replies bumping the visibility of this sub died while you were waiting four weeks to reply, buddy. XD

[–] barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nah, you're bringing it all back! Keep going!

[–] knightly@pawb.social 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Sorry, buddy. It's just you and me in here. XD

[–] barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 0 points 4 weeks ago

Hey, keep going. Don't stop.. :)
