L take, communism and socialism don’t work and never will. There’s a reason every communist or socialist country has failed or fallen back into capitalism for the masses and authoritarianism for the top.
“During the years of Stalin’s reign, the Soviet nation made dramatic gains in literacy, industrial wages, health care, and women’s rights. These accomplishments usually go unmentioned when the Stalinist era is discussed. To say that “socialism doesn’t work” is to overlook the fact that it did. In Eastern Europe, Russia, China, Mongolia, North Korea, and Cuba, revolutionary communism created a life for the mass of people that was far better than the wretched existence they had endured under feudal lords, military bosses, foreign colonizers, and Western capitalists. The end result was a dramatic improvement in living conditions for hundreds of millions of people on a scale never before or since witnessed in history.” Michael Parenti, Blackshirts and Reds: Rational Fascism and the Overthrow of Communism
I haven’t seen the film or read this review, so I find it very possible that it was lifted out of context or maybe from someone who isn’t a native speaker. Because the context I immediately assumed is that their attractiveness is confusing because mattel is virtue signaling about body acceptance and diversity in the entire film, and yet all the characters are of course conventionally attractive, and makeuped to shit. This though is based on an assumption of what the film is about to be fair.
No im very bisexual and would describe everyone in that film as confusingly attractive, I get its the point, but they all look very fake and plastic to the point its just on the edge of the uncanny valley.
You’re clearly not conservative, and you’re posting old "gotcha"s to the conservative community. Whats next, you’re going to start posting “We really got Trump this time” articles? Its clearly not in good faith, otherwise you’d post it in the appropriate communities. Or you’d find something actually interesting to post.
The rules don’t prohibit non conservatives. The mods here have explicitly said non conservatives are permitted.

It’s an from two weeks ago about a Jan 6er who was caught trying to kill Obama/his family within the last few weeks. Its not old. And I’m posting these things because otherwise this place will be an echo chamber that never hears of events like these.

Your assumption that I would do such a thing is closer to bad faith than anything I’ve posted here. It’s better to judge somebody’s actual actions than the ones you think they’re going to do based on your own biases.

Firstly, I’m not the mod that removed your post.
Secondly, yes, non-conservatives are welcome but if your entire purpose here is to stir the pot then we will have to evaluate each blatantly non-conservative user on a case-by-case basis.
Non-conservatives ARE welcome in the spirit of encouraging open and honest discourse, something that is hard to find formerly on Reddit, and now on Lemmy. Non-conservatives will not be welcome if they’re rage-baiting, trolling, or pot-stirring.
Furthermore, judging from the types of things that get reported on here, there is a site-wide issue where non-conservative users come here and report and downvote every post. I do not understand why someone that is not conservative would venture into a conservative community and get mad at the posts there, but as long as the posts and comments are in line with general conservative talking points or conservatism in general, it will always be allowed here. This is not to be confused with very blatant bigotry whether that be racism, homophobia, transphobia, etc. which is NOT allowed. That said, the people submitting reports here seem to confuse “I disagree with this” with “this is bigotry”.
