Your posting pattern betrays your purpose in the Fediverse.

That being said, if you're actually a conservative versus just doing a paid gig at some Russian troll farm:

The ghost of William F Buckley Jr would kick your ass up between your shoulder blades for besmirching his name.

Never liked the man, but holy fuck would he be revolted by the likes of you.

You mean by me posting conservative news articles to a conservative news community? That's not something I was trying to hide. Do you realize that this forum is public? What purpose am I betraying?

Last time I checked, there is no sign on Lemmy that says no conservatives allowed. This is a conservative community and I posted something conservative to it.

And how much do Russian troll farms pay? Any way I can apply?! Dude, I want a job just posting on Lemmy. That'd be cool!

For posting conservative news articles to a conservative news community? I don't actually think that would upset him nearly as much as it has upset you.

Speaking of your intrepid mission to put conservative content in as many spaces as you can, in an effort to put a positive spin on what it means to be a conservative:

Amongst the sea of heavy handed, lipstick on a pig takes of of ongoing Trump antics, i see that you posted some heartwarming story about some republican legislators shaving their heads in support of a Democrat colleague with cancer.

A few years ago, there was a gif posted on reddit, of a very loveable working dog of some sort being reunited with their owner or working partner or something, with all the warm fuzzy goodness you'd expect from such gifs. This reunion took place at a United Airlines gate/desk, clearly visible on the carpet of the wonderful reunion.

The gif was posted several days after United Airlines had their goons beat the fuck out of, and forcibly remove that surgeon, who didn't want to give up his seat to fix an overbooking fuckup on United Airlines part.

There is a scene in the opening act of Django, right after he is liberated, and the slavers are now confronted by their now well-armed former captives, and the one guy summons up the absolute best example of kindness that he's shown the captives, as a bargaining chip while pleading for his life. As in the absolute best case that he can make for himself, because his life was on the line. Do you remember what that was?

Yeah, it's difficult to highlight examples of humanity, when the lies of ommision required to make them stand out are so numerous and severe.

You're basically fueled by hate, but don't like that about yourself.

Never mind spin for one moment, and consider every action that the Trump administration has taken. Disregard all of their words attached to those actions. Keep all of that in mind, and reflect on why a handful of republican politicians shaving their heads for a work buddy, is the best thing you could find to radiate how humane and kind Republicans are.

That's a suggestion for introspection, if you have the capacity for it. Any rebuttal or comment you might have simply won't address the character flaws that govern all of your responses.

I don't have any hate. I'm loving life and everything is going amazing. I'm just posting some conservative articles. You need to calm down. lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Your response is in keeping with what I expected from you, right down to the lol.

You probably felt clever while composing it. You should try basking in that, I guess.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Glad I've met your expectations! This basking feels awesome. Thank you!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Of course it feels awesome. You lack the insight necessary to understand the sleight.

Thank goodness too! That means nothing you say can bother me. :)
