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.

🍃🌻 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.

It's one thing for Hilary to claim he's an agent, but what strings did she pull to get Russia to claim he was an agent?

Not sure. You should investigate, write an in-depth article, start your own news site or community and post it. Be the change you wanna be! I support your efforts!

I happen to know of a bunch of open source authors who did something quite similar to what you suggest:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Links_between_Trump_associates_and_Russian_officials

They site their sources with quality sources. I tell you because I figured you wouldn't recognize them when you saw them.

There ya go! Now you have a good game plan. Be the change you wanna see.

Since you enjoy them so much, you should make a Lemmy community and post their stuff or stuff like that. Be the change you wanna see. I support you!

Quiet, jester. Political discourse is trying to happen. I guess you didn't recognize it either.

[–] DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I guess you didn’t recognize it either.

I guess now. But why should I be quiet? I'm just the lowly jester in my dying walled garden. I'm no bother. No point in having political discourse here. After all, no one cares about this community or visits. Right?

[–] UnicornMeat@lemy.lol 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Say it again, but slower. I don't believe that you believe that.

[–] DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

But it must be true. You said it. Surely you wouldn't have said that just to try to insult me or bully me. Right? That'd be bad faith. And you don't like bad faith, remember?

[–] UnicornMeat@lemy.lol 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I definitely catch a whiff that you don't have a clue what bad faith is

[–] DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today 2 points 3 days ago

Well, I'm def not very bright. Besides, you definitely wouldn't be saying anything in bad faith, right? You're a straight up guy, just trying to help out. Right?

[–] UnicornMeat@lemy.lol 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Unbelievable. Literally cannot believe this. I do not believe this. This is lies.

[–] DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today -1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Just because you don't believe something, doesn't make it true. But hey, if it's all lies, then nothing to worry about. Right?

[–] UnicornMeat@lemy.lol 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm not worried about you posting lies at all. Nobody is. People aren't even downvoting you anymore. You're the crazy hobo living under the underpass of Lemmy.

So see? Then nothing for you to worry about. You should be in a good mood!

You’re the crazy hobo living under the underpass of Lemmy.

Actually I'm the crazy hobo living at the poolside of Lemmy. I just posted this to the positivity community today. Ya can feel free to downvote me there! !positivity@lemmy.today Seems like a community you def need to visit.

[–] UnicornMeat@lemy.lol 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Oh yeah, your positivity campaign. Because you think people are attacking YOU and not your rancid ideas.

Are you about to tell me my emotions, fortune teller? Or just my beliefs, my intentions, my priorities, and how they're all wrong if only I'd just smile more, stop doom scrolling, and other things you dictate about me with as much evidence as your news posts have?

Campaign? By posting to a community? Ok... lol

Because you think people are attacking YOU and not your rancid ideas.

What rancid ideas? I'm just posting links to the articles. I don't write the news, nor do I make the news. I'm just the lowly Lemmy jester that no one cares about. No bother. Just here in my little walled garden that no one visits or likes. Not a problem to anyone at all.

Why do you think people would attack me or my "rancid ideas?" No one cares about me or visits this community. It's a dying walled garden, remember? Of course no one is attacking me or my ideas. No one cares. Remember? I'm no bother at all. :)

Or just my beliefs, my intentions, my priorities, and how they’re all wrong if only I’d just smile more, stop doom scrolling,

I'm not the only one in the world that thinks people should smile more and stop doom scrolling. I was just trying to be friendly and help out.

You, of course, are welcome to not smile and doomscroll all day every day. It won't stop me or affect me in any way. I smile all the time and laugh all the time, and I don't have any worries or stress.

But you want all that negativity, go for it. Or be happy. Either way, has nothing to do with me.

Remember, I'm just a lowly, lowly Lemmy jester. No bother at all. :)
