Conservatism emphasizes self-reliance, which is a principle I stand firmly behind. We must instill in people the power to depend on themselves, to value the stability and discipline that conservatism preaches. Only through such self-sufficiency can we truly forge a path to freedom and dignity.
FWIW, I think the term “echo-chamber” is way overused
Fair point! I agree with all your points made.
I should clarify and say that I think Lemmy very much wants to erase all conservative content from the fediverse. Which is totally against what the fediverse stands for.
Thank you for supporting this, even tho it goes against the wave of Lemmy. I’ll be switching to you to be my main instance. I am loving the vibe there. You guys are awesome!
The more posts I see from you, the more I respect you! I know you went through some rough hits and pushback.
Unfortunately I am seeing your home instance, lemm.ee being part of this push against opposing opinions lately.
I am liking the vibe of hilarious chaos a lot. I’m switching to it as my main instance.
Me too!
Then block them. They don’t have to be banned though.
I think more people should follow your example, to be honest.
I prefer people block them, rather than calling for them to be banned. Conservatives have just as much of a right to be here as liberals.
Because Lemmy very much wants an echo-chamber. Even tho many say they left Reddit to get out of echo-chambers.
I’ve seen lots of posts saying variations of, “I don’t think the Fediverse should allow conservative communites.” lol
Nobody is correcting them because nobody takes them seriously, they don’t matter and they’re not worth the effort.
Oh, then no reason to be upset when you see articles from them. After all “nobody” is taking them seriously, so all good.
Sure, but he had 4 years to find waste like this, and he didn’t. Because him and the Democrats make too much money from secret money deals like this.
That’s my point.
Seems to me that if Breitbart news were just making this up and lying; that in itself would be a good news story for other media.
But I don’t see any news orgs denying these figures or accusing Breitbart of lying.
So you don’t think it’s true?
They just don’t want the audit.
That’s exactly it. I hope there is one and I hope names are named. lol
Biden can help us find it!
I care if there are benefits being paid out to that imaginary person.
And it still hasn’t been fixed.
Fuckin’ loving what DOGE is doing! So fun!
democrats seemed pretty cool with it too. Biden was in office for last 4 years, brah.
I have first hand knowledge. I was fed employee for 5 years. State employee for 15 years. Some people legit would be in the office for a meeting, then go home. This was pre-covid, so WFH wasn’t a thing. And they def weren’t working.
Where I was at, it was pretty much known that all of the people who had been there over 10 years just skated through after that.
It all allowed me to retire early, so I can’t complain too much. But the fuck-offs I encountered there definitely have inspired my voting choices. Also, the fucking staff meetings were ridiculous. The literally had a meeting over everything rather than just email it.
I’m happy to see them purged.
Good luck!
