Request to mod c/conservative
(lemmy.world)
c/conservative has been left modless. I'd like to request to moderate and clean up any misinformation on this community.
I am consistently online here and prepared to take on the responsibility.
Thank you for your consideration!
The requested community link is [email protected]
Additionally, I'd also like to request [email protected] as for that one it seems a spam account created it and has since been abandoned for months
ETA:
Given the controversial nature of the comms topic, I have decided to add a proposed set of rules that I was thinking about, to keep it strictly parody without going off the rails:
- 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: 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.
- No News Zone: Memes only, news should be sent to the nearest relevant comm
- Clear Satire: Make your satirical intent reasonably clear. We're here to mock bad ideas, not accidentally spread them.
- Relevant Content: All posts should relate to conservative politics or ideologies in some way.
- 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.
- Remember The Purpose: This community exists as a pressure valve—a place to process through humor the often frustrating world of conservative politics.
OPs post history makes it very clear he doesn't actually want to mod that community in good faith.
That is unfortunatly the truth for a lot of conservative parties around the world these days, but I don't agree that one personally has to do that to be a conservative. So I really disagree with that sentiment.
However I do agree that it is a very tricky situation indeed.
Half the problem is that the word fascist is completely overused. And the other half is a lot of people on Lemmy here convinced themselves that deporting illegal immigrants is fascism, when it simply isn't.
Trump is not a fascist, never was.
Frankly, Lemmy is not a place for differing opinions, it's a place for the far left to circlejerk.
All I want to see out of this is honesty. If it's not for conservatives, then don't act like it is.
Obviously not. There is no such thing as a conservative that acts in good faith in the first place.
I have not posted any misinformation, I have pledged to clear up known misinformation spreader links such as Breitbart
I didn't say you did. But you spend the entire morning spamming the community with memes intended to troll the members, exploiting the fact that it was unmodded and breaking rule 6. That's not behaviour becoming of a mod anywhere and certainly not in a community which you ideologically oppose.
But hey, not my decision, just providing some background info.
I see your point, however, in my view it has been abandoned with the only serious posters posting mostly misinformation and is open to be remade in "a new image". In fact, it seems the only time "good" source links were posted (i.e. AP news) was after it went modless (for the most part)
