Comment on Why I Haven't Seen Any Trump Supporters In Fediverse (Lemmy and Mastodon)?

It would be nice to have some opposition, though. Even if most “conservative” media right now is little more than xenophobia, or cult worship, there do exist sound arguments against the typical internet-left positions. I don’t have a solid enough read on what comes through New in the fediverse to say whether any of that is being submitted and just downvoted off everyone’s feeds, or if all that’s being submitted is the average conservative media junk.

Still, political spaces without opposition/diversity invariably degenerate into purity contests, and circle jerking.

No, there’s really not sound arguments against them. That’s why nobody ever hears sound arguments.

Stop assuming ghosts exist because you saw a picture frame on the wall move when a large truck went by…

  That’s like saying there are no trade-offs to any policies; it’s simply not true. I’m as left as they come (not American left, British), but failing to admit there are flaws or sound arguments against left-wing ideas is very ignorant.

    Nonono, you misunderstand the political landscape.
    
    Something having downsides IS NOT the same as the claims being made against things. Ifmyou think conservative politicians are arguibg in good faith, you simply haven’t been listening.
    
    There really are not sound (conservative) arguments against them.
    
    If you fo not agree, you do not know enough.

    If you do not agree, you do not know enough. Period.
    
    Lol. Your arrogance is astounding.

    Not what I said, is it? The person said there are no arguments against “the typical internet-left positions”; which I disagree with. If such positions were infallible, they would always succeed. All policies have trade-offs.
    
    I didn’t mention “right … sound points” or their representation.

Conservative media comes through plenty in the form of business, tech and mainstream media sources 🙄
