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.

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 American right (unique among ideologies), denies the existence of climate change altogether.

So it's hilarious to point to one crazy "on the left" instead of the army of credulous cretins who believe something much more harmful because Daddy Oil told them not to worry.

That isn’t true at all. While more people point it on the right, it’s not denied by the majority.

One crazy? All the lefty is crazy. As your post proves, you think everyone on the right denies climate change. I’ll challenge you to find one post where I’ve ever denied climate change.

Remind me again which side the aisle has been fighting to address climate change for decades? While you're at it, refresh my memory on which side has been fighting against doing anything about it for decades...?

Btw nobody is defending anyone on The View. Both sides have (rightfully) been making fun of that show since it started

[–] wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee -1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Well since she thinks are earthquake was caused by climate change. Who is actually fighting for change ? Elon created the electric car market. Yet the left just shits on the man who made electric cars mainstream.

The left doesn’t want change. They just want to scream about it. Otherwise they’d shut up and buy a Tesla like I did.

Oh damn I forgot Sunny Hosting is the spokesperson for the entire left. You got me there!

You're really, really bad at extrapolating and pattern recognition. Congrats on owning a car with the highest failure rates on the market, though! You must be having fun driving it through the hyperloop tunnel

[–] wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee -1 points 7 months ago

I never said she was the spokesman. She just a typical example from the left.

Umm wow that last paragraph is weird as shit. I’ve never had any major issues with my car. Some paint issues but nothing mechanical

There are not hyperloop tunnels. Elon didn’t build the hyperloop. Are you thinking about the boring tunnels?

Ah, this must be why you spend so much energy telling conservatives that climate change is a real threat instead of pointing to one person "on the left" who says something cringe.

Because the real threat is the kook who thinks we should be protecting the one planet that we have for the wrong reason.

Thanks for showing me the error of my ways, hon. What would we do without conservatives deflecting from actual issues by pointing to a single uninformed person and pretending that they're just as bad as a coordinated campaign to enrich oil companies at the expense of biodiversity, drinkable water, and a stable climate?

[–] wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee -1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I talk about it all the time. Just because you want to build a straw man doesn’t mean you have a clue.

[–] LookBehindYouNowAndThen@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Cool story! Maybe tell the guy you're going to vote for in November that climate change isn't a Chinese hoax.

[–] wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee -1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Or maybe I’ll just continue to laugh a stupid lefties. I find that more entertaining. He response was epic stupid and yet; you want to defend her. Her comment was chuckle worthy.

[–] LookBehindYouNowAndThen@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yes I definitely defended her by calling her a kook.

That's a very smart thing that you just said.

[–] wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee -1 points 7 months ago

You claim it’s one person. The majority of lefties are kooky. It’s provides hours of chuckles

[–] Gigan@lemmy.world -2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Why is the top comment a lazy whataboutism?

[–] wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee -3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Brigading by angry lefties.

[–] MomoTimeToDie@sh.itjust.works -2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

If only there were something you could do about that 🤔🤔🤔

[–] wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee -2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You can’t stop them from voting. I’d turn voting off as I think it ruins conversations, but that isn’t my choice.

[–] MomoTimeToDie@sh.itjust.works -3 points 7 months ago

You can turn off their ability to leave their shitass comments
