This is a community for conservatism. Every other conservative space in the Fediverse has devolved into extremism or bigotry. This will NOT be tolerated. The rules are as such:

  1. No racism or ethnosupremacism.
  2. No antisemitism (including dogwhistles or using right or left politics to deny it).
  3. No misogyny (such as saying women should not vote).
  4. No queer-hatred (disagreeing with their lifestyle is not a blank cheque for vitriol or exclusion).
  5. No ableism.
  6. No ageism.
  7. No slurs.
  8. No extremism.
  9. No personal attacks or strawmen on others (ad-hominens). ARGUE IN GOOD FAITH!
  10. No spam.
  11. No flood.
  12. No trying to find loopholes in the rules.
  13. Moderator and the host instance has the final say. Follow the Terms of Service of PieFed and, even if you may disagree with them, the broader Fediverse as a whole.

Edited for accuracy.

      To be frank, I would rather have no posts than make the world or the Fediverse a worse place. And I quite like the Fediverse… it is one of the best social media networks ever created! I want to improve upon it to the best of my ability. Furthermore, I will enforce basic decency and respect.

      Edited to make our standards clearer.

    Not sure if you already know, the Piefed software (and pifed.social site) does maintain a list of default domains they block. It’s mostly right leaning/far right type stuff but still, hosting a conservatism community on an instance that censors/blocks a lot of those related links… is certainly a choice.

    See https://lemmy.ml/post/47022286/25574741 and rest of the post discussing it.

    I’ve no interest in the community, just letting you know in case you’re wondering why certain news site links don’t show up there.

      1. Yeah. They do. And that is a good thing. Extremism should be banned no matter what it is and hosting on an instance that blocks these things means I chose the correct instance. This community will not be associated with them anyways.
      2. Thank you for the information. I will put this to good use of what sources not to use when citing information. I largely use one leftist source, one centrist source, and one rightist source to avoid blindspots. Authenticity and accuracy is ultimately what matters, not an ideological spin.
      3. I respect that. Still, really, thank you.

      Edited because I originally completely messed up my wording.

    Brilliant to make this and good foresight on the rules you’ve laid down. Lemmy/piefed will probably only grow if we allow diversity of thought, and so far has lacked any right wing spaces.

    I’m willing to help moderate if you need another mod in the future.

      I may take you up on that if moderation ever gets too difficult for me to handle alone. Much obliged for the offer!

      Edited to add I may take you up on the offer.

    I would not mind a space that recognizes the abandonment of conservative principles by the republican party and tried to get back to principles that have been chipped away at since nixon. If it considers conservatism the deficits don’t matter voodoo economics and stuff right up to maga. whelp then I will just block it.

    Hilarious. I’ll see you in a week when your community is full of Nazis. PieFed is such a trip.
