A community to satirize conservtive and right-wing "ideals".

This community (now) exists as a pressure valve, a place to process through humor the often frustrating world of conservative politics. Above all, this is NOT the place for serious conservative support/viewpoints/arguments. There are other places on Lemmy for that if you desire it.

Rules:

  1. Always follow .world instance rules

  2. Parody With Purpose: This is a space for humorous takes on conservative politics. We welcome satire, but draw the line at content that promotes racism, sexism, homophobia, or other forms of bigotry.

  3. Memes Over Manifestos: This community focuses on humor and parody, not serious political debate. There are plenty of spaces for earnest conservative discussion, this isn’t one of them.

  4. Highlight Contradictions: Sometimes the best content points out inconsistencies and hypocrisies in conservative talking points. Creative commentary is encouraged.

  5. Public Figures Fair Game: Politicians and pundits can be satirized, but no targeting of private individuals, doxxing, or harassment.

Children of public figures under the age of 14 are also off-limits, a 16 year old has enough free agency to break with or adopt their parents views. An 8 year old kid doesn't.

  1. No News Zone: Memes only, news or other serious content should be sent to the nearest relevant comm. Meme's of current events, however, are encouraged.

  2. Clear Satire: Make your satirical intent reasonably clear. We’re here to mock bad ideas, not accidentally spread them. If you're unsure how it will be taken, feel free to DM the mod team ahead of time or explicitly tag it as satire in the body.

A note on ChadMcTruth: Chad's content is 100% satire, but his work can sometimes be hard to tell, but if he posted it be assured, its satire.

  1. Relevant Content: All posts should relate to conservative politics or ideologies in some way somewhere in your post. Either in the title or the meme itself.

For more general political memes please see !politicalmemes@lemmy.world

  1. Community Respect: Disagree with fellow members all you want, but personal attacks aren’t welcome. Save the criticism for the ideas, not each other.

  2. Moderation Discretion: Mods will use reasonable judgment in applying these rules. We’ll be fair, but firm. These kinds of comms have a tendency to get off the rails, so we might seem overzealous in moderation sometimes.

  3. For the moment, i'm allowing properly tagged NSFW content as long as its funny and relevant. Don't make me regret it.

And above all, HAVE FUN!

Lemmy: "Haha! You fucking idiots! That's not what Transgenic means."

DOGE: "Don't actually care. This is just some bullshit to distract the rubes while we finish our bust out of the US Treasury."

We know, this comm is specifically for satire and humor of the right-wing. We make some memes and crack some jokes to help deal with the sad reality we're all currently in

I see this misguided gripe all the time, people forget how important cultural and political messaging is for organizing and motivation.

I interviewed an old guy who fought in the spanish civil wars and he had this massive collection of pamphlets and leaflets and newsletters and posters from that period and, let me assure you, other than design, style, and medium, the messaging was consistent with current sarcastic memes and even shitposts. They made a lot if it, propaganda and useful info wrapped together, like in all struggles. That stuff is important.

Effective resistance strategy incorporates many tactics. You look to your expertise, and draw strength from others where you can.

The Spanish Civil War did not end well for antifascists. People were making fun of Francisco Franco well into his late 70s.

They did manage to blow up a minister though.

Yep but that’s a separate issue, geopolitics at play. Fascists and conservatives support each other internationally. I guess you can only assassinate character with a meme lol.
