Actually right leaning communities?
-
Hey guys one of the things I miss about reddit is communities like r/Conservative or r/conspiracy, not because I agree with really anything they say there, but because it's a challenge for me.
It's really easy to say "no you're dumb and wrong", but I like going down rabbit holes so I will take the bat shit insane stuff they say and find actual sources to refute them. I know it won't actually change any minds but it's fun for me.
I know theres @[email protected] but that is basically just non-conservatives making fun of conservatives. And I have not been able to find any good conspiracy theory communities on Lemmy at all.
Any advice?
There are probably plenty of right wing instances you're not federated with, but now that mainstream social media has been overtlu taken over by fascists there's not as much reason for it. When I first heard of Lemmy I remember there were a shit ton of far fight instances because that's who was getting kicked off of reddit back then. Now, though, the owner of Twitter is straight up doing seig heils in front of crowds and you can get banned on reddit if you criticize him too much. So if you're a conservative, why would you bother using a weird open source platform like Lemmy when the big dogs are all in complete agreement with your beliefs and all your heroes are on those platforms, especially when your ideology is based on hero worship?
TL;DR if you're a right winger you're just on the mainstream platforms or on an explicitly right wing alternative like Truth Social

Like I said, I miss r/Conservative and r/conspiracy the most from reddit
Plenty of conspiracy theorists on Lemmy just mention that Luigi Mangione killed Brian Thompson or Trump falling out with Elon Musk and they come out of the woodwork

If you want to see unhinged shit just make a new tik tok account and look up the word adrenochrome. The algorithm will get you real quick.

It's not federated and it's a different format.
