There’s a new conservative community, so looks like some more conservatives are being represented on Lemmy: !conservative2@lemmy.today

    partially it is because of current political climate, where they do not feel represented, hence a platform where they have like minded people (lemmy)

    Here in the US: Media, News, social media, Bluesky, Reddit, Threads, etc. All of those things are left-leaning. Lemmy is just mad they lost the election, so they cry about it. Even then there aren’t very many conservatives on Lemmy, so nothing to cry about.

      there are multiple kinds of “lefts”. if you go by political-compass.org, almost none of american media favors the economic left (socialism as opposed to capitalism). the social left (liberalism as opposed to conservatives) while is more represented in media, you can not deny that social right is growing. problem is that “elected conservatives” are doing a lot, and a lot not in postive direction (for society in general, imo), so i do not find that they are crying unneccesarily. i also do not like “us vs them”, be it from left or right, us or them. it should be “us vs us”, then people become more sympathetic. i do not support “death to all jews” but i also do not support “death to all nazis”. I only support “no deaths”.
