    Already posted this in the earlier thread, but the image seems real. LeVar Burton advocates for this IRL:

    There are also recent examples of books like To Kill A Mockingbird being pulled out of high school ciricula due to antiquated attitudes towards race being depicted. I think these should have been kept and preserved as an example of outdated societal attitudes instead of being repressed.

        <Not parent commenter>

        I couldn’t answer in the original wording so I found it, annotated:

          Unfortunately, I think the parent commenter meant protection from something closer to losing your job for saying racist bullshit to your coworkers

            Or protection from losing your job for calling out your coworkers, clients etc.:

            • This is shit, the task is not done, it is going to take a few days to undo the mess you’ve made
            • This is because I’m black! You racist peasce of garbage!

            And

            • Your “demands” are insane pile of contradictory statements, no can do
            • You bad <position here>, I am calling my lawyer!

            So yeah, some people only understand when you speak in plain swear language, and no, that can never mean “so I can badmouth anyone just because I feel like it”

          That doesn’t exist. Though, luckily, in countries like Australia, it’s universal enough to put outspoken Nazis in prison.

          I’ll take that over whatever the fuck is going on the the US.

          Even if free speech is diminished a tiny bit. We all (most of us) love Nazis being in prison 👍👍

            Again, what is the definition of Nazi that is universally recognized?

              We don’t operate under a framework where everything needs to be 100% defined, else prosecuting/legislating would become unreasonably cumbersome to the point where it’d be so easy to find loopholes.

              Whatever a jury of your peers determines is reasonable to define as hate speech, under guidance of the law. Here’s an example: https://www.ag.gov.au/national-security/publications/displaying-prohibited-symbols-offences

              You’re trying so hard to justify that all speech should be tolerated, but it should not.

              Look what they’re getting the the US, barely hidden Nazis in positions of power.

              Fuck that.

                  There it is folks, we found a troll.

                  Honestly, I’m not terribly well-versed on the Ukraine situation, but you are not arguing in good faith, and just side-stepping it.

      “Offensive” is just a matter of perspective.

A community to satirize conservtive and right-wing “ideals”.

This community (now) exists as a pressure valve, a place to process through humor the often frustrating world of conservative politics. Above all, this is NOT the place for serious conservative support/viewpoints/arguments. There are other places on Lemmy for that if you desire it.

Rules:

  1. Always follow .world instance rules

  2. Parody With Purpose: This is a space for humorous takes on conservative politics. We welcome satire, but draw the line at content that promotes racism, sexism, homophobia, or other forms of bigotry.

  3. Memes Over Manifestos: This community focuses on humor and parody, not serious political debate. There are plenty of spaces for earnest conservative discussion, this isn’t one of them.

  4. Highlight Contradictions: Sometimes the best content points out inconsistencies and hypocrisies in conservative talking points. Creative commentary is encouraged.

  5. Public Figures Fair Game: Politicians and pundits can be satirized, but no targeting of private individuals, doxxing, or harassment.

Children of public figures under the age of 14 are also off-limits, a 16 year old has enough free agency to break with or adopt their parents views. An 8 year old kid doesn’t.

  1. No News Zone: Memes only, news or other serious content should be sent to the nearest relevant comm. Meme’s of current events, however, are encouraged.

  2. Clear Satire: Make your satirical intent reasonably clear. We’re here to mock bad ideas, not accidentally spread them. If you’re unsure how it will be taken, feel free to DM the mod team ahead of time or explicitly tag it as satire in the body.

A note on ChadMcTruth: Chad’s content is 100% satire, but his work can sometimes be hard to tell, but if he posted it be assured, its satire.

  1. Relevant Content: All posts should relate to conservative politics or ideologies in some way somewhere in your post. Either in the title or the meme itself.

For more general political memes please see !politicalmemes@lemmy.world

  1. Community Respect: Disagree with fellow members all you want, but personal attacks aren’t welcome. Save the criticism for the ideas, not each other.

  2. Moderation Discretion: Mods will use reasonable judgment in applying these rules. We’ll be fair, but firm. These kinds of comms have a tendency to get off the rails, so we might seem overzealous in moderation sometimes.

  3. For the moment, i’m allowing properly tagged NSFW content as long as its funny and relevant. Don’t make me regret it.

And above all, HAVE FUN!
