A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

The nanny state. Doesn’t interest me.

Donate to the charity you want but don’t use my tax money for programs that wasteful and ineffective.

Oh you guys. If you come upon someone hurt, do you say to yourself "I must make sure this is a US citizen before I try to help." Do you check for ID and an insurance card before administering first aid or calling an ambulance?

If you are not religious, fine, it doesn't matter: be as cynical and xenophobic as you like.

Anyone who says they are Christian or advocates for a "Christian nation" should understand that the parable of the good Samaritan applies not only to individuals but Christians collectively.

Anyone who uses religious language to make themselves seem moral and righteous, but then says illegals don't deserve healthcare, that person is a hypocrite. Don't vote for them.

Eh, that parable is about how individuals are to behave, it doesn't apply to states. Also a true #Christian nationalist would be okay with if not in support of an apartheid state, with unbelievers being excoriated from society if not excluded from the country.

Ah yes. Unlike other politicians.
