A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

Elon Musk got his pet website blocked in an entire country because he wouldn't ban 7 literal Nazis. Elon Musk put a content warning on NPR links. Elon Musk disabled Ukraine's starlink satellites at the request of the Russian government. Elon Musk called the diver who rescued the kids from the cave a pedophile because he was butthurt that people didn't like his idea. Elon Musk continues to alienate customers and tank stock prices by being one of the most vocal douchebags in the internet

How does "it's a private company, he can do whatever he wants" sound right about now? 🤭

. Elon Musk disabled Ukraine’s starlink satellites at the request of the Russian government

That is false. Elon disabled it over Russian areas because of federal Law

sorry wrong link. Here is the right one.

https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-joe-biden-us-government-responsible-for-starlink-debacle-2023-9#:~:text=Access%20to%20Starlink%20in%20the%20territory%20near%20Crimea,on%20in%20Crimea%20without%20government%20approval%2C%20he%20said.

Access to Starlink in the territory near Crimea was "turned off" because the US has sanctions against Russia, Musk said. Starlink is not allowed to turn access on in Crimea without government approval, he said.
