I don’t want to be in close proximity to fascists.
I’m glad we ran them out.
America should follow suit.
We should run them down, instead.
Lances are heavy and my horse is hungry.
That’s reason #8,647 why the French invented the guillotine, friend.
Vive la France!
Good, they can go be on a website based on their ideals. Like capitalism? Dont move to a free and open source platform. Go continue licking boots on reddit
Capitalism is good
I honestly have been loving the internet a lot more since we started quarantining the fascists in twitter.
They can only leave to join a new community when they grow out of their edgy teenager phase. Otherwise they get ostracized.
.ml is a tankie istance and stans authoritarians.
Conservatives and tankies both love authoritarians, but mostly exclusively different ones, so they tend to hate each other.
I downvote every post from .ml I see.
Their users smell bad.
They’re the original Lemmyites. They won’t go away so easily.
That’s why I plan to leave to PieFed once it’s mature enough. They’ll still be around, but I won’t be using a platform developed by them.
Tankies don’t seem nearly as bigoted, at least.
TBF, that is a low bar to clear.
Ask them what they think about Cuban, Vietnamese, or North Korean refugees.
No they just hand wave genocide.
Yeah, but not because they hate the genocidees, it’s because they love the genociders.
You know what Nazi apologists are called?
Nazis.
There really isn’t much difference at that point.
Most so called conservatives I saw here were actual racists or people who can only live and feel good by hating other marginalized groups. And these people are definitely not wanted here.

Yeah, that’s basically the definition of being a conservative.
Yes, the hateful assholes the economic conservatives tolerated for their support took over the conservative space.
Exactly. If a bunch of Nazis took over my groups, I would leave those groups.
Anyone who still calls themselves “conservatives” or tries to associate with them is either stupid, stupidly uninformed, or a nazi.
That’s not to say I hate the people currently leaving those circles, but like… cmon. What took you so long??
One of those funny coincidences that keeps happening.
If you feel unwelcome on lemmy, it’s probably because you’re not welcome here.
I know you’re referring to the folks referenced in the topic, but it’s best not to put that as a general statement. I’m not going to comment on political inclusivity, but there are still ways to be more inclusive and broaden perspectives. For example, a lot of women feel unwelcome here, and probably a lot of people from the disabled community, among others.
Correction: If you feel unwelcome on lemmy because you’re a conservative
Make Fascists Ashamed Again.
There are conservatives who aren’t fascist though
It’s a rounding error. The number of Republicans who voted against Trump in 2020 was like 1%.
Yeah, they’re called Democrats now.
With Democrats being a big tent party I wouldn’t bee too surprised that there’s a conservative wing to it
More than a “wing,” since they control the vast majority of it. Everyone else (with any power) are little more than small offshoots.
Assumes facts not in evidence.
I don’t get what this means
Manifesta probatione non indigent
If it were manifest, we wouldn’t be having the discussion. A single example would prove me wrong.
Wait I thought that was a reply to a different post down the tree. Yeah, no, they’re aren’t any.
Good, fuck 'em.
I used to lurch into conservative subreddits routinely. Each one turned into an openly fascist circlejerk and banned all dissent.
Once you strip away the “making the libs cry” aspect of conservative social media, they lose all interest in talking to each other. That’s why Parler failed, that’s why Trump’s blog failed, that’s why these people won’t just leave these platforms they hate so much.
And that is the underlying principle behind their hysteria toward “cancel culture” and deplatforming. They aren’t upset at losing the right to speak (nor have they lost it). They’re upset that they’re being deprived of access to a captive audience of non-conservatives to upset.
It’s not advocacy for free speech, it’s advocacy against the freedom of association.
You’ve been here long enough to have seen the conservative shift as more Redditors come here
This post doesn’t ring true
boy who wouldn’t want r/conservative over here. many much big branes.
Wait, we kicking the shit out of conservatives?
Did I miss the fun AGAIN?! Damn…
Activate locally, citizen. ✊🏼🌈
As if .ml would take the time off their busy schedule regurgitating Trumps/Putins right wing propaganda to kick fascist ass.
They want to remain in their small, closed off bubbles. Experiencing different social networks beats the purpose.
It’s got to be a shame kink or something, right?
Regressives do be link that.
