The bar is in hell, and r/conservative is still under it.

And now they're apparently starting to set up shop on Lemmy too. Before I blocked it, I saw they're on their best behaviour too. But mark my words, once the dating and flirting period is over, their shoes are going to come off and their feet are going to be up on the table.
I would've hoped that by now everyone would've learnt their lesson to never trust or listen to these people again. They flat out lie when they're talking about things like 'freedom' and once they're in power, they serve themselves and fuck over everyone else in society. And their leaders, that they don't mind associating with and supporting are a bunch of inbred kiddie fiddlers and have been since long before Trump. And yet here we are again, letting them have a seat at the table.
These people cannot be fucking trusted. And I'm willing to bet that they're going to be a source of a lot of downvote trolling too, in queer communities and women-centric communities.
- Relax. This is just the internet. You're taking trolls for real persons.
- Which community? One of them is now under new management and turned satirical
  
  Could be one of those that I saw this morning, I guess. In world. It was a 'reasonable' post complaining about Trump. I just block them as I see them now tbh. Even the_donald started as satire.
  
  The whole idea is that it does not turn into another the_Donald, but I perfectly understand your caution. There's still users trying to post "in earnest" (according to them at least), but they get ratio'd so it's not as bad as you might think.
  Anyway, not here to tell you what to block and what not, but I figured you might be interested in the story that it went from a snowflake safe space to a satirical meme community :)
- i blocked conservative instance on lemmy and on reddit,b ecause i keep seeing it, dont want to see it or engage it. and reddit was actively pushing the sub to the front. i suspect on lemmy , without russian bots riling them out, they will have less of an impact than on reddit, its well known the trolls from the farms control the subs there.
