Comment on Is there a more politically conservative part of the fediverse?
eldavi@lemmy.world 10 months agoThe Fediverse is undeniably very left leaning currently, which is surprising to me since you’d think the anti-censorship design on paper would appeal more to people on the right who are against big tech and censorship, but I guess not? It’s interesting.
american conservatives care more about denying rights and liberties than anything else as evidenced by their leaders and publicly shared platforms; so if you believe that censorship has anything to do w it, you’re not a conservative.

I think both the left and the right are concerned with restricting rights, they just have different views of which rights it's okay to obstruct.

The “rights” to deny bodily autonomy and ethnical cleansing are not worth defending.

Ah yes, the classic conservative “both sides” argument.
