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!

[–] Atomicbunnies@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 weeks ago

I sent the email to .world support - still no answer :(

And just like that, c/conservative became my favorite community.

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

who even got the idea to make this community on lemmy of all places

[–] Atomicbunnies@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 3 weeks ago

some dipshit BUT looks like it became a place of fun an call outs!!

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Well it is two years old. They were probably hoping to establish a beachhead until Lemmy bullied them out.

I joined sh.itjust.works about two years ago during the Reddexodus. I remember two things happening around that time, a the_donald community popped up and was quickly banned, and The_Dude opened The Agora and there was some wackadoo in there campaigning against allowing members to vote on anything.

[–] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

you are our favorite member too <3

[–] HorreC@lemmy.world 54 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

While I get it, the better thing to do would be to post things on the subjects they claim are one way but with facts and numbers showing that they are not the way they claim.

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 45 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Facts would be an example of something they don't like.

[–] HorreC@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

While I would 'internet' agree, in person if you can talk it over it seems to be something some are open too. But it also has to be phrased as a discussion not hey look your party is fucked here is the proof. I get that they dont treat anyone with kid gloves but on the internet you have to treat them gently or they will scurry back into their hole of if I am not right then we nuke the world.

I still vividly remember my father in law screaming over me about the election being stolen, in my living room during Easter in 2021 when I replied to his claims that they were hiding boxes of fake ballots under tables in Georgia.

He literally refused to even listen.

[–] HorreC@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

So fucking sad. And now still no evidence and even those that said it were sued and had to admit it was made up and yet they would never admit it. And the left are snowflakes for just wanted to be seen as they see themselves.

[–] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 3 weeks ago

with facts and numbers

[–] Olap@lemmy.world 19 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Where did the last mod go?

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 74 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Got fired by DOGE probably

[–] grue@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 18 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

First one, then the other, then the first thing again.

[–] Juice@midwest.social 7 points 3 weeks ago

Convicted, pardoned, appointed

[–] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 3 weeks ago

I assume all the mods were inactive for years and got removed by the automod? At least that's what i can tell from the modlog.

[–] eran_morad@lemmy.world 18 points 3 weeks ago

Probably Moscow.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 11 points 3 weeks ago

Just post facts and be civil, they hate that! Maybe add a few LGBTQ+ references every now and then, but keep it civil and non-obsessive.

Otherwise, feel free to ignore conservatives, tell them to shut the fuck up, or grill them about why they are an absolute waste of oxygen.

[–] synapse1278@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Ah, that explains why there are so many nice posts from this community at the moment!
