I want to get y’all thoughts on it. I want to avoid having 5,000 rules that are impossible to follow, but this one seems prudent.

Just a simple [Satire] in the titles would be enough.

Edit: I won’t add a rule about a satire tag.

    Dude you’ve been posting shit like breitbart here. You don’t actually care about quality or facts.

    Even when I post stuff directly from amnesty international, it gets downvoted. https://lemm.ee/post/12963343?scrollToComments=true

    Downvotes are not about source. It’s about agree/disagree.

    Also you can’t read minds.

    Banning posts that are critical of conservatism is not “diversity of thought”.

    Which is why I added “on a site scale” which you conveniently didn’t copy over. This sub doesn’t exist in a vacuum, there’s plenty of places for lefty content, and you can subscribe to both. Like the .world sub.

    Its a bit like saying a cat sub should also have dog posts. Theres a place for dogs, and theres a place for cats. You don’t need to muddy the waters.

      Because this is c/conservative, and like I said, conservatism is incapable of competing in a true, free market of ideas.

      Also you can’t read minds.

      No, but I guarantee you that I read way more liberal comments than you do.

      For some people it will be.

      No it’s not, because dog/cat topics don’t influence votes, which have immense, real world consequences.

        Im not going to bother with the rest, its not worth the effort, but

        which have immense, real world consequences.

        This sub has 44 subscribers and 68 users/month. Thats not immense by any stretch of the imagination.

          Reddit’s r/conservative started out at a similarly low sub count.

            In any case, its not immense now, and I think its good for lemmy. Has /r/conservative lead to anything bad?

              It definitely contributed toward’s Trump’s presidency to say the least.

                  If you haven’t already seen the Trump administration for what it was, nothing could ever convince you no matter how bad that administration’s actions. You are blind to the truth.
