A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

I don't strictly agree with changing names back, but it's still conservative. What do y'all think?

You meant to say slavers, right? The founding fathers were traitors to the crown, its not strictly a bad thing

They were traitors. Do you think fighting against your country for the right to own slaves is more conservative than being a traitor for other reasons?

The slavery is the bad bit here.

They weren’t fighting their own country. Do you understand what secession is? The democrats left the Union and started a new country. Do you think California wanting to leave makes the state a traitor ?

At least one founding father thought a little rebellion was a good thing. I’m not a fan of the confederacy. It was democrats doing what democrats do but if you can’t leave the union, then we are not a democracy as tha left claims.
