Still New - Disappointed

[Father Heathen]

I didn't antagonize anyone. It was a debate and I put in my opinion, just like others did.

I meant people who are hung up on and can't get over trans people in general.

 

[Father Heathen]

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Not exactly. More, a same interest, similar views area. Like how this place has different sections for economic policies. If it doesn't, that's fine. I'll likely just start ignoring the worse of these people, for my own peace of mind and enjoyment. After all, I'm here to enjoy my time here, not deal with woke netizens and the alphabet mafia for days on end.

There's a conservative DIR? I didn't see it. Can you link me?

The political DIR are under political world section, btw. Here's the conservative only section. Conservative Only

I've been here a little while. Remember when I asked if this was a paradise for woke snowflakes?

So right away you showed your bias and intolerance. This won't be an effective way to debate and engage with well-informed and ethical members.

Well, it seems to be from the responses I've had to a few posts. First, you have the group who can't manage to accept the fact women are a biologically based thing. Second, you have the weird woke group. Is there a forum area for non woke, non sjw people?

So you are admiting your failure to present a valid and acceptable argument? Could it be your bias is more the problem than open minded and tolerant members?

There's a political subforum called "conservative only", by which they mean in the American sense, so I for example don't qualify in spite of having been a conservative voter much of my life. But that is all.

If you want a place with more like-minded people to yourself, have you thought of Trump's Truth Social? Or is that beyond the pale to you?

Trump's Truth Social? I'm not familiar.

Truth Social

They welcom "open, free, and honest global conversation without discriminating against political ideology."

"At the moment, Truth Social is available for U.S. users only,"

So if you live in the US and agree with trump its the place for you

Not to digress from the thread subject, but what are some of the key differences between Europe and U.S. conservatives, aside from theocratic agenda and gun fetishism? Specifically, what criteria disqualified you from the DIR?

They say without discrimination against political ideology, but I wonder how left leaning views would actually fare there.

There is also a site called "Gab" which is a rightwing twitter clone.

Not sure if you meant to include me in that;-)

I understand quite a few leftist comments are pounced on by mods.

It is shadow banning "unsavoury" posts.

Several people have been banned over Jan 6 comments.

And Google play jas banned the app over content violations.

The left do not survive there

I'm not looking for a place where everyone agrees. I'm looking for a place which isn't saturated by those people. I'm also looking for a space within this place where I can be free of those people.

Then go before you are contaminated by
these ( eeeewwwwh) people.

I did not. I blame RF.

Though so...

It's not as much about truth as it is Trump propaganda:

Trump’s Truth Social Is Allegedly Banning People for Talking About the January 6 Hearings Because Of Course It Is

It's not surprising that those who loudly bellow "Free speech!" are quick to squelch it once it runs afoul of their narrative and bias. A recent example is the push to ban LGBT books from public libraries.

Interesting. I'm not part of MAGA but thank you.

I personally desire to ban LGB+T books from elementary schools. Do you know why? Children don't need to be exposed to this crap.

And some parent would like there children to learn as much as possible before they become adults.

Edit . So what's the answer, ban the books and disenfranchise those who are open about their children's education. Or give instructions that your own children should not be educated in certain matters and let the rest of the world get on with its life?

Because? Care to muster a rational, substantiated argument? "I don't like it because it's icky!" is neither a valid nor persuasive argument.
