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.

You can just say no and amend what you mean.

How come none of you know how to argue? Pointing out a strawman just means I've misrepresented your position.

Also, the unaccompanied minor is in the bill. You posted it.

Could you point to where I said I disagree with all the exceptions, I simply listed them? If you had a desire to have a real discussion you could ask which ones I disagree with.

You might need to read up on what a straw man is, it's not just misrepresenting a position.

You seem to have missed my point about your attempted straw man. I was saying I'm surprised you didn't us the what about the kids as your straw man.

Yeah, okay, I owe you a genuine apology. You actually read it and found bits that you disagreed with and even quoted them. And, in response, I fucked by basically asserting that you believe things you don't.

I apologize for that.

I do want a real discussion. But, let's try again some other time.
