If you missed the drama, conservative community on LW got “repurposed” by the admins of that instance, and is now a trolling space.

And honestly, I’m surprised it took them so long. Their censorship, after all, was one of the reasons for creating this instance. Nobody should be surprised by censorship from liberals, their ideology cannot survive without censorship, freedom of speech is their biggest enemy.

Our instance grows. Slowly but steadily (unfortunately, sometimes I have to decline new applications because people don’t read the rules).

So I want to encourage people here to start creating local communities. Take an active part in resisting censorship. Please don’t start a “reverse censorship” though, we should strive for an open and civil discussion, not another echo-chamber. Everyone, even liberals should be welcome here (as long as they can survive in a no-censorship environment).

    Hey there and welcome to this instance! :)

    So lemmy.world is so big on hating censorship, thinking everyone should be accepted. But I guess that only extends to people who are libreral?

    Yep. Whenever someone points it out, the response is always the same, something like “well, THEY [bad guys] are censoring the truth, but WE [good guys] are just removing misinformation”.

    Loving your instance here.

    Any chance we can start a conservative/libertarian community on this instance?

    The libertarian one is already here, I see you even posted something to it :)

    Feel free to start a conservative one.
