Almost feel sorry for this guy, working so hard to create an echo chamber all by themselves.

Yeah, but the community is filled with liberal posts anyway.
It’s basically becoming like r/FlatEarth, where they make fun of flat earthers.
Please please please let this turn into a Reddit-like r/AnimeTitties situation. This was one of my favorite things about Reddit & the Internet in general.
I hope we -also- get a well moderated !/anime_titties where we can discuss world news items.
What’s the deal with that subreddit? It’s just what it says on the tin. Did it used to be something else?
So, mods at r/worldnews gave up moderating and became inundated with anime titties.
Then r/anime_titties became the new world news lol.
Like r/Trees & r/MarijuanaEnthusiasts
It was r/worldpolitics. I was there when it happened. It was a fun day!
Oops, meant r/anime_titties

literally the same exact concept

When this was posted there was only the one guy, now there’s like 30 and I bet it’s cause of this post

That community should be renamed “links to the craziest and most unfounded shit I can find” but that doesn’t have the same ring as “conservative”
“Do you suffer from an increasing lack of Copium? Tired of being asked to take personal accountability or put critical thought into your opinions? Come to Conservative where it’s always the Liberals’ fault!”
“Do you believe everything you read or hear on a podcast? Want to skip the hassle of thinking for yourself and be told how to feel about issues that don’t directly affect you? If you’re angry with nowhere to direct that rage, come to Conservative!”
This post has been up two minutes and I think already has more positive votes than any other post here. That should say something
The dude has to be a troll. No one has this little self-awareness. (speaking of @Optionhome)
Edit: Seems like the dude had enough and migrated to conservatives only
Have you taken a close look at conservative America lately?
Sadly yes. Thankfully only from far away as I live in Europe.
Not far better either.
It depends…. But yeah, not much better… Europe is a few years behind and still going hard on neoliberalism, but the right is moving more and more to the right. And the “left” that has been winning ground is as fang-less and liberal as American Democrats. So yeah, we’re fucked as well. Only a few years behind lmao.
That’s my impression as well.
its gotta be. They’ve already had their own reddit replacement for years, no reason to come here other than to start a flame ware
They’ve already had their own reddit replacement for years
but Stormfront pre-dates reddit
They probably meant Voat

Or Parler.
lol. That Colbert Report header graphic.
Lol
You would think being alone would make for some good echoes
Please just stay on reddit on your “echo chambers” lmao
Do I really have to endure crazies here aswell?
You can block users and there’s a big red “Block Community” button at the top right.
You don’t have to endure shit, maybe stop brigading other people’s communities if you don’t like them. You can’t possibly willingly search up a community for an ideology you don’t agree with, then complain about having to see them.

I mean, sure he can.
Andy, on the other hand, is doing God’s work.
We need an Andy for the MAGA one they just made as well
There’s a few angels sprinkles in there now lol
Holy crap, he got banned for 3 years!
Conservatives, real bastions of free speech, huh?
Oh, and I just noticed from the sidebar: “1. No racism or bigotry.” Then what the hell else are they gonna talk about here?
Easy! There is plenty of room for outright fascism and restriction of womens rights without having to even bring up the N word.
Meta discussion - the existence of this post makes the wonder what moderation tools on lemmy are like? And if there’s systems in place to deal with unwanted content.
https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/users/04-moderation.html
- Users report posts & comments
- Communities have mods
- Instances have admins
- Instances that disagree on how moderation should be done can block the other
Edit: Changed “unmoderated communities” to “unwanted content” to clarify my intent to discuss moderation in general
This community is moderated. We receive reports and will act on them if the reported content breaks the rules in the sidebar: there is no racism or bigotry, no personal insults, and u/stanleytweedle has not been spamming.
Oops, didn’t mean to imply that the community wasn’t moderated or that this post in particular was worthy of a ban. The post was slightly negative so it made me think about moderation. Thanks for your work!
I seem to have misunderstood your post too, lol.
And if there’s systems in place to deal with unmoderated communities.
This made me (incorrectly) assume the intent of your comment.
The moderation tools are pretty similar to most other platforms, as you neatly laid out.
“Believe everything you read or hear on a podcast? Like to be told how to feel about things that in no way affect you directly?”
This and political compass memes
I almost feel sorry for the users who think brigading other people’s communities is a worthwhile use of their time, let alone making political discourse any healthier.
It must be jarring leaving their bot/troll protected safe spaces of twitter/reddit and interacting with sane normal people.

If you tried building an echo chamber alone, but as the ‘other side’ - it’s actually really easy.

a wild BothSides appears!

Ah the ole “both sides” argument. I have a feeling you do indeed identify as one. And if in 2023 liberals and conservatives look the same to you, that’s a fault in you
deleted by creator
I’m so happy you are a powerless person 🤣 – you think with the simplicity and guilelessness of a simpleton. One man raped women and children (“I SHOULD’VE POPPED HER CHERRY!!!” and, of course, “GRAB EM BY THE PUSSY”), is facing countless indictments related to treason and national security, hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths, stochastic terrorism, literally has resent toward veterans as he sees them as a threat to his masculinity, 191m dollars golfing, it goes on and on. And another “doesn’t talk right” and “is old”. I hope you can one day realize how stupid you not only sound but ARE when you say/believe things like this. You sound like a self-important high-school drop-out.

Literally none of that is even remotely close to what I mentioned. Trump has had DOZENS of sex crime allegations over DECADES. His a career criminal who is currently GOING DOWN FOR HUNDREDS OF WELL-PROVEN, WELL -DOCUMENTED CRIMES.
All you are is weak taking points wrapped in a personality disorder and a room-temperature IQ. Weak brained, fearful of facts and truth.
I hope you give him all your money, wear your stupid khakis, and march your ass to real society and try to pull your looney tunes bullshit again, round 2 for the Jan 6 shit-smearering goblins like you.

No, it literally isn’t. If you are confused, contact a legal professional in your area to walk you through the difference between baseless and unsubstantiated claims attached to short media pulled out of context and actual crimes with actual victims.
You are acting in bad faith–you can believe your independent or whatever you want call yourself–as someone who willfully ignores reason. Thankfully, no one has to listen to you or anyone else’s perverted little stupidities and half-lies much longer because your kind has been dying off faster than Dodo. They begged teary eyed for a vaccine far too late before they’re intubation; or absolutely never can find love in a populated area; or wait for a pardon in a DC cell.
