Conservative

Sincere question

What are some innovative ideas to come out of conservatism in recent years? Could you provide me with examples of policies coming from the conservative / republican party?

In leftist spaces, right-leaning ideas are challenged. In right-leaning spaces, leftists are banned and leftist ideas are censored. Why are conservatives opposed to the free marketplace of ideas?

Serious question.

Nice to see someone with actual power standing up against organizations dedicated to censorship and manufacturing false victim narratives

The more I use lemmy, the more it begins to just feel like all the same problems reddit had. It has the same problems with major communities having far left moderation standards that only apply to the right, the same hive mind users that just spam the same tired out leftist talking points over and over while refusing anything close to an actual discussion.

The only upsides are that downvotes aren't used to punish you site wide, and the handful of non-leftist instances that exist, though they always end up defederated by all the major instances, effectively making them poor spaces for general discussion.

So what are your thoughts? Is this just the "more like under new management" from megamind? Is there hope for it to become a decent platform for everyone, not just the left?

To the surprise of nobody, New York City continues to brazenly ignore the constitution. This raises the question, what should be done about corrupt politicians who's reaction to being struck down in court is to double down on their tyranny while directing all their propaganda outlets to try and delegitimize the constitution and the court?

Or are you open to hearing all kinds of opinions?
