I'm no conservative [I'm a LibSoc/Anarchist], but I can see why they wouldn't want to be on Lemmy. It's not the most open-minded group of people. As soon as someone thinks even slightly different in some small way, they're labeled a fascist or some other pejorative as a way to end the discussion and critical thinking process to exclude constructively contemplating what was said. People can't just have reasonable debates anymore. Insults are thrown and groupthink becomes more isolated and heightened within their own dogma. And their communities are brigaded regularly. It happens on their side too. The human race just seems fucked.
When and where has that happened to you on here? Let's be clear, there are always going to be individual bad actors, but outside of .ml and hexbear, that has not been a trend I've observed.
