Interesting that I never go to groups dedicated to liberal, progressive, or democrat party discussion and argue with people there. But then again I actually have a life. And I don’t really care what THEY think I just want to be left alone.

I am not a mod of this group and therefore did not make the rules. But the clear intent was to have a group where ONLY conservatives could have discussions. I will never understand why a non conservative that has 99.9% of all social media groups as left leaning, finds the need to go to a group in the small minority of .01% to have “discussions” with conservatives. The group is for conservative discussion, it is NOT for conversations with NON conservatives. I have made this point before, but the biggest problem with lemmy is they do not have a flair policy. As leftist as reddit is they at least allow their few conservative groups to restrict all posts and comments to those users who prove by prior posts that they are conservatives. I think you might be best served in those 99.9% other groups where you can post a dissenting point and see if you have common ground. And based on my past experience with THOSE groups good luck at actually diverting an inch from the approved narrative to start a discussion with an opposing view
I think you need to re-read the rules of your community.
This is rule 3 in it’s entirety. I’ve highlighted the part of particular note, you are welcome to verify it yourself should you not believe me.
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.
I disagree with your interpretation. The rules clearly says the group is for conservatives. And YES, even conservatives have differences of opinions. A conservative group where conservatives can express dissent over various policies. Conservatives don’t adhere to the narrative dictated to them by the media or any political party
Uh homie. I didn’t give you an interpretation, I only gave you the exact text of the rule its self. Nothing more, Nothing less. I’ll post an update with a screenshot in a few minutes as further proof, but I think you need to reread the rules for yourself.
Update: Screenshot of the rules themselves.
