Is there there an equivalent to /r/askconservatives on Lemmy? (beehaw.org)

I appreciate opposing/different views as long as everyone is reasonable. That sub wasn't void of trolls but it seemed to be more or less balanced (not to be confused with /r/askaconservative). I still lurk but I refuse to interact on Reddit.

I've limited my Reddit usage purely to subreddits that I can't find a reasonable substitution for. Lemmy is small, a bit complicated to get at first, so naturally there's going to be some communities that just aren't going to make it here. For me really, I go back to participate in r/ChangeMyView and r/AskTransgender.

The first to help provide a voice for trans folk in the seemingly ceaseless threads about trans people, and the second (more important one) to hopefully provide advice or information to people who're just trying to figure things out. It's a tiny little way I can give back and hopefully help at least one person here and there, so I'm not going to give that up just because Reddit itself has shit the bed.
