This is one sample visit to the conservative subreddit. It's an appalling example of the impact of disinformation. When you need to be reminded of who the enemy is and what they think, visit here. You will see that there is no gratitude or mutual respect, and there never was. There was never any concept of mutual benefit. And now, with Trump leading the cult, there truly is no depth to which they won't go, and no decisions from Trump that won't be retroactively justified.

These people are dangerous, and they don't give a shit about any alliances, friendship or partnership. And they control the levers of power.

Edit to add a screenshot. Not sure how to add more, but it doesn't get any better as you go deeper. What's clear is that this relationship is over, and we need to move on.

Personally, I automatically hate anyone that describes themselves as conservative, but you have to know that r/Conservative is not a very good representation of the entire group. It's EXTREME and one of the most blatant echo chambers I've ever witnessed; any dissent will earn you a ban from that sub.

It has been interesting to see "Canadian Conservatives", some of them top commenters, get viciously turned on by /r/conservative while lamenting about how this is hurting PP and the Conservatives movement in Canada.

turns out an ideology that ignores real problems and always seeks out groups to villainize isn't a good way to make long term friends

The U.S. is Bizarro World.

Its funny seeing this stuff in r/conservative getting down voted as hell.

It usually gets upvoted to the moon. It's infuriating.

r/republican is no better. They literally spout the lies trump spews and believe them 100%

Pedo-Donald will try to annex Canada. For the first time of my life I'm considering getting a gun. We cannot trust conservatives anymore. Poilievre and mostly Ford are just playing the though guy card now to negociate a position, mark my words. Be prepare to fight.

Cesspool, the question is what % are bots.

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

All of these comments are severely downvoted. What are you every saying here? That one incredibly unpopular opinion represents them all?

Don't get me wrong, fuck them all. But this is such a stupid argument for your hate.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

That happens when r/conservative gets to the front page where they are pant’ed/ brigaded.

They do not reach those numbers on their own, and the most heinous shit is defended by the mods with the same voracity as Reagan

I don't need r/Conservative as an argument for my hate. Listen to Rogan, or read any one of the dozens of other threads at that sub. Or even look a bit deeper in that post.

Wow, so glad this brave American here could teach me so much about my own country. Let me just call up my drug dealing ~~prime minister~~ governor and demand that he fix Canada immediately lest we face more punishment from Poppa Cheeseball. Thank you r/conservative, I'd be so lost without you proper Americans leading the way.

The only 1% these guys can be in is 1% posters on the conservative subreddit.

Canada. If you want to invade and only fight the Republicans of America. I’d literally do nothing to stop y’all. Have at it rabid viper chickens.

Wouldn’t be surprised if this was Made in St. Petersburg™️. And American ‘conservatives’ just lapping it up

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The talking points might be, that supremacist US attitude is not. It's been there for decades.

Its not the Russians or Trump there is big part of the US that is hostile to anybody but their, imagined, version of America and places no real value on others even allies.

There is so few actual people left in that sub. It’s just ai comments and absolute staggering amount of Astro turfed propaganda

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Sometimes, I wish I didn't have eyes... This is one of those times.

Jesus fucking christ. Like, if I typed that shit, I'd hope someone would put me in a fucking psych ward, stat. People need some fucking help.
