A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

No, this is wrong. I don't know any leftists that are antisemitic, and plenty of leftists subscribe to the Jewish Voice for Peace, the largest progressive Jewish anti-Zionist organization in the world. Definately not antisemitic.

There has been a strong propaganda push to cast leftists as antisemitic in an attempt to deligitimize protest against indiscriminate bombing of civilians and human rights violations. Plenty of rabbis have been arrested for protesting military attacks on civilians and they aren't antisemitic.

Secondly, I don't think there is a close connection between leftists and Nazis. In fact some leftists formed a group called Antifa which is short for Anti Fascist. Fascism is the ideology of the Nazis, which is absolutely opposed - and opposite to leftist thinking. Fascism is very much a right-wing ideology.

I'm sure an overwhelming majority of leftists are against torture and murder of any people regardless of race or religion.
