Is there a more politically conservative part of the fediverse?locked

Snowman44@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 43 points –

I'm a conservative. I don't mind the liberal stuff here. It's good to learn the other side, but I don't want a liberal echo chamber. I'd like to be more politically balanced in the fediverse. Is there any way I can do that?

Serious question: Wouldn’t you as a conservative who doesn’t want an echo chamber therefore NOT join a conservative community? Wouldn’t THAT put you in an echo chamber?

I want both liberal and conservative views. I'm not planning on leaving lemmy.

If you find that, let me know. My entire experience on platform after platform is that the internet is 80% messy, open conversational marketplace that tends to lean left, 19% conservative echo chamber, and 1% tight, closed door communities where “reasonable” conservatives live in denial of the world around them.

If you feel like you’re in a liberal echo chamber because you see trans people being talked about as real without anyone coming to shout it all down, then what you’re really looking for is the 19% and I’m sure you’ll find it.

It's sad that respect, empathy and basic human rights are "leftist" ideals.

Yes. And it’s imperative for us to recognize that’s where it’s come to.
