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 [email protected]
-
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!

So those respondents are saying when a Democratic president is in power, election results are fair, and when a Republican president is in power, the election results are suspect?
They're saying the opposite.
Because trump kept lying about losing in 2020 and an astounding number of low information republican voters believed it, but now that he won, the murmers of fraud have fallen off a cliff. Because trump won this time.
Read closely, he said it correctly, he was talking about who was the sitting president when the election was held.
To be fair it could be interpreted both ways, now that you mention how else that could be read.
In that way of reading it, pretty damning about faith in one party vs another
Except you just corroborated his claim
Our elections have been fairly held, in 2016, 2020, and this year too.
If things weren’t above board the actual career professionals whose job is election integrity in each state would have sounded the alarm.
So I’m not sure what you’re insinuating.
You're arguing against him by agreeing with him. He said that they only accept this election as fair and the previous one as completely illegitimate, those are elections run by a Democratic administration and Republican respectively. You're talking past each other, it's very funny.
Lemmy definitely thinks that now! lol

Entitled shit stains.
Kind of like Democrats’ change from 2016 to 2020? It was fair game to talk about how the 2016 may not have been fair due to Russia and then all talk gets banned if you question 2020?
Remember when democrats stormed the Capitol in an attempt to subvert the 2016 election? No? What do you mean Hillary conceded the next day?
It was about foreign influence working alongside a campaign to spread disinformation in 2016, not a question of election security or vote manipulation.
Stupid person:
- Has theory
- New data comes in
- Changes theory
That is literally the scientific method.
I think you meant something else, but it comes across as anti-science.
What they have is a false premise, built on nothing, nothing changed, still changes hypothesis after the outcome fall in line with their belief.
Because democrats talked us into how fair elections were. Wait, are you saying that they aren't fair now?
America has never had fair elections.
