There are enough conservatives on lemmy for that to work? I honestly have been on the lookout and it feels like 99% of people are actively anti-conservative here.
It’s not quite that simple. I see a lot of people demonizing others online and it gets pretty ugly. These people have families and people that love them and people they are nice to. They feel like the world is changing too fast and sometimes they’re aware they’re not the brightest. The online thing changed the game.
On some level they have something right, also. How many times have you seen someone flamed for making a general statement reasonable for their level of experience on a topic and get flamed for not including someone?

We need to fix the internet somehow. We need to stop blowing up minor errors into big pile ons and we need to stop feeding the trolls. We need to meet our neighbors again and talk to a stranger we don’t agree with about things we can agree on.

Idk how effectively, but it happens. Cool sn.
Thanks! Edward Snowden is definitely not well appreciated enough.
The systemic favoritism the right gets is insane, even from left wing people. We need to atop biasing in their favor, they don’t deserve it

Let’s bring some humility back?
