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.

For a more permissive community, go to !conservative2@lemmy.today

🍃🌻 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.

Or more precisely, Trump is successfully extorting $16m from Paramount.

That's what Paramount deserves for either being fraudaulent in their reporting or because they are simply giving in to Trump. I don't feel sorry for them at all.

I don't feel sorry for them either

You don't have to feel sorry for them to recognize that this is brazen corruption - that Trump has (yet again) abused the authority of the office of President for personal gain.

All you have to do is be intellectually honest...

Sure. EVERY President has used the office for personal gain. Biden/Harris were no different. If Dems pick better candidates, maybe they can win the next election.

I figured that was likely expecting too much, but in the spirit of generosity, I felt obliged to give you the opportunity and let you demonstrate on your own whether or not that was a quality you possessed.
