conservative
A community to satirize conservtive and right-wing "ideals".
This community (now) exists as a pressure valve, a place to process through humor the often frustrating world of conservative politics. Above all, this is NOT the place for serious conservative support/viewpoints/arguments. There are other places on Lemmy for that if you desire it.
Rules:
-
Always follow .world instance rules
-
Parody With Purpose: This is a space for humorous takes on conservative politics. We welcome satire, but draw the line at content that promotes racism, sexism, homophobia, or other forms of bigotry.
-
Memes Over Manifestos: This community focuses on humor and parody, not serious political debate. There are plenty of spaces for earnest conservative discussion, this isn’t one of them.
-
Highlight Contradictions: Sometimes the best content points out inconsistencies and hypocrisies in conservative talking points. Creative commentary is encouraged.
-
Public Figures Fair Game: Politicians and pundits can be satirized, but no targeting of private individuals, doxxing, or harassment.
Children of public figures under the age of 14 are also off-limits, a 16 year old has enough free agency to break with or adopt their parents views. An 8 year old kid doesn't.
-
No News Zone: Memes only, news or other serious content should be sent to the nearest relevant comm. Meme's of current events, however, are encouraged.
-
Clear Satire: Make your satirical intent reasonably clear. We’re here to mock bad ideas, not accidentally spread them. If you're unsure how it will be taken, feel free to DM the mod team ahead of time or explicitly tag it as satire in the body.
A note on ChadMcTruth: Chad's content is 100% satire, but his work can sometimes be hard to tell, but if he posted it be assured, its satire.
- Relevant Content: All posts should relate to conservative politics or ideologies in some way somewhere in your post. Either in the title or the meme itself.
For more general political memes please see !politicalmemes@lemmy.world
-
Community Respect: Disagree with fellow members all you want, but personal attacks aren’t welcome. Save the criticism for the ideas, not each other.
-
Moderation Discretion: Mods will use reasonable judgment in applying these rules. We’ll be fair, but firm. These kinds of comms have a tendency to get off the rails, so we might seem overzealous in moderation sometimes.

For the moment, i'm allowing properly tagged NSFW content as long as its funny and relevant. Don't make me regret it.
And above all, HAVE FUN!

Yeah, on foreign soil and across the world. Lol I want to figuratively see what they can do at home especially now that their ethics are out the window.
"different tactics" meant exactly what you're saying and beyond. Those guys won when the military hadn't faced such an opponent. You're gonna need way more than guns and be forced to get creative.
It's worse than what was faced overseas, here at home you have large number of War on Terror veterans. Trained, armed and experienced, many disillusioned with the tilting of the government, and the media, and the populace around them. There's been a blue shift in both active duty and veteran communities.
The optimist in me hopes it's enough.
Less?
?
Why would their "ethics" come into play in foreign soil? You don't think Cletus might think twice when asked to fire hell fire missiles into Grand Papas house?
The us did not have a lack of boom overseas, its always had the logistics to put "warheads on foreheads" anywhere in the world.
In the "homeland"? I don't think you even understand the sort of cluster fuck of a military operation you are proposing. Like do you think if a civil war broke out, all the "sides" would separate and fly a flag? At this point it would be like other modern civil wars with a just mess of sides and no clear front.
You don't need to talk down to me and assume things that I didn't say. Listen to what I'm saying because it's different than you seem to pivot on.
Ethics used to guide the type of weapon employed, especially overseas with foreign watch. If none of that is necessary, including the logistics, then putting the "warheads on foreheads" is much easier. And if people aren't necessarily watching, who cares if you use an extra bit of cruelty. It's exactly what Russia does next door.
I don't think I was proposing any sort of military operation, clusterfuck or otherwise. Where'd you get that idea? Lol
Huh? There is one side with a flag and a head of state in chare of the military. What are you on about? Just decided to make up interpretations of what I meant? It's a bit off putting tbh.
This series of posts is about armed counter movements in the united states. And here you are accusing me of assuming what was said.
No, you're of assuming what *I* said. Whoever else said that is on them.
This was you correct? Unless you want to see what they can do "at home" to a foreign power.
Bro, you gotta make yourself a lot more clear. I don't even know what your point is. I didn't say anything about a specific counter movement or hint at a tactic of any kind. I'd say quote me on that but the way you just misquoted me is kinda weird ngl.
