Weak-ass republicans only like good news about their own.

I start by saying I am a member of our green party and quite left wing.

That is the point of having separate communities. The mods get to set the rules and can remove what they want.

The exact same thing would happen if someone posted a right-wing news article on lemmygrad.

This is not humour, this is low effort trolling. Using an account called throwaway just shows this.

You will never change someones views with things like this.

It just makes the poster feel righteous without actually doing anything positive.

That’s the mods name of the community. So you’re right about that lol

[–] Pons_Aelius@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

well, that was my mistake.

On a wider note. I struggle to see why they want to set up right wing communities here as this place is very left wing so they will get shit-posts like this all the time.

It about as useful as setting up a left-wing space on Truth Social. The only difference being that Truth Social would ban you in short order.

I agree. But I see plenty of left politicians getting called out by the left.

So a Republican, seriously, the Green Party was created and is funded by the GOP to take votes away from Democrats. It isn't actually a functional political party.

If everyone knew what conservatism stood for, the only people who would stay conservatives would be the most vile of pedophiles.
