Wait! I'm not with THEM! There's an unfortunately loud part of the country that is giving the GOP, conservatives, and Americans a bad name. This comm is for the rest of us, the quiet majority. If there is anything worth conserving, it's our values: Respect, Integrity, and Truth.
This comm is for the posting about US politics from a right, but not alt-right, perspective.
Rules:
- Treat each other with respect. Follow lemmy.today instance rules. Follow your instance rules.
- Social media posts must either include a timestamp in the image or be accompanied by a timestamp in the text of the post. Posts with an inaccurate or missing timestamp will be removed. Relative timestamp (e.g. "5 mins ago") will be removed.
- Only use high quality news sources. They all have bias, but quality and truth are a requirement. News articles must have a non-fictitious, non-anonymized byline. Fox is not a high quality news source.
- Don't post memes, but you can comment with them.

Data proves Republicans are historically bad for our economy.
Their voting history proves they only vote to help the grotesquely wealthy.
Maybe Americans need to learn how to look up data.
I am a data driven person. I blame my more liberal opinions on things like facts. I wish our media talked more in tables and charts than emotions, but it’s frustrating how easy it is to spin numbers to say almost anything. I don’t think there’s an easy fix — just a lot of messy nuance we don’t always have patience for.
The data is out there, but I wish it was more in our faces. It's almost like this is important or something. /s
Thanks for letting us all vent on you. I really do appreciate and respect conservatives like you. Wish more people, on both sides, were like you
It's a hard line to walk as a moderator. I share the frustration with my party but the over simplification of "all conservatives" sometimes pushes me to step in... Even if I still somewhat agree. I understand the dubvee folks wanting to take a big step back.
