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.
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.
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!
And may we never see those words on televised news again, Republicans willing.
Speaking of DEI hires.....all the cops who are picked over college educated people because they'd be too smart and question orders? Where are the firings there?
DEI isn’t an acronym to these people. It’s a synonym for “not white”.
I recently watched a video on exactly this. Thought it was pretty well done.
DEI and the Rise of the Modern Slur by Garrison Hayes on YouTube.
I tell this to people about flags all the time .... any time you change the colours, image, orientation of a national flag ... you're announcing to everyone that you've broken away from the nation and are standing on your own with your own group now. You are are saying that you are no longer part of the nation, and that you've set up a new group that you stand for that has nothing to do with the nation. It's an historic thing about adopting flags and especially new flags ... especially during times when people couldn't read - they might not be able to read your manifesto, but they certainly knew what a new flag meant. It's an historic part of vexillology - the study of flags.
The blue line flags in the US and Canada are a display that they no longer identify with the country they are part of .... they're wanting to stand on their own against everyone else.
I don't care HOW MANY CHILDREN DIE the Constitution is SACRED! UNLESS Trump wants to Run for a Third Term or Journalists make Trump feel BAD or Women want to Vote or. . .
