As a friendly reminder, this comm is for the satirizing of conservatives only

Memes, comics, onion-type articles etc making fun of conservatives is what's accepted here

Serious articles, discussions, information, infographics etc please post to [email protected] where the wonderful @[email protected] tries to moderate actually fair conservative debates

If you want the conservative space for conservatives to spout their bigotry, Nazism, xenophobia etc etc please see [email protected] or the HilariousChaos instance in general, "The Friendlier ExplodingHeads Instance" ™

I'll also be updating the display name to make it more clear when searching for a comm in the new post screen

It's official, a new era is upon us for [email protected]!

I am officially a mod of [email protected] ! What does that mean?

It means that this comm will be transitioning into a satire of conservatives comm, please look to what's been posted the last week or so for an idea of what I mean. I have purged the "serious" content (Yes that does mean some *anti-*conservative content was purged as well) for the past 2 weeks or so. I'll be continuing with time to purge it all.

I have decided against banning the right-wing users who've been posting the "serious" misinformation content from before this post because, unlike some conservatives, I don't believe in retroactive punishment when the rules change.

(To those users this post is the official warning, no trolling, no serious content or conservative supporting comments.

Continuing to post such content after the time this post is live will result in bans.)

Do watch your step during re-construction! Below is a draft set of rules that I had posted in my LW support request post, feel free to propose any suggestions! (The side bar has yet to be updated)

  1. 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.
  1. 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.
  1. Highlight Contradictions: The best content points out inconsistencies and hypocrisies in conservative talking points. Creative commentary is encouraged.
  1. Public Figures Fair Game: Politicians and pundits can be satirized, but no targeting of private individuals, doxxing, or harassment.
  1. No News Zone: Memes only, news should be sent to the nearest relevant comm
  1. Clear Satire: Make your satirical intent reasonably clear. We’re here to mock bad ideas, not accidentally spread them.
  1. Relevant Content: All posts should relate to conservative politics or ideologies in some way.
  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.
  1. Moderation Discretion: Mods will use reasonable judgment in applying these rules. We’ll be fair, but firm.
  1. Remember The Purpose: This community exists as a pressure valve—a place to process through humor the often frustrating world of conservative politics.

Don't worry @[email protected] I havent forgotten you, just got to get things organized out and settled

(I might be chronically online to some, but I still have IRL things to attend to lol)

Finally, I'll be getting in contact with other instance admins that may have blocked this comm for their instance from when it was "serious", I already know lemmy.blahaj.zone is one. But please lmk of any others you're aware of!

For now, I will allow tasteful, on topic and tagged NSFW. Just don't let it get out of hand.

Welcome to the new [email protected] everyone! Have fun!

H.Res.1490 - Providing for the condemnation and denouncement of socialism in all its forms, and for other purposes.

RESOLUTION

Providing for the condemnation and denouncement of socialism in all its forms, and for other purposes.

Whereas socialist ideology necessitates a concentration of power that has, time and time again, collapsed into communist regimes, totalitarian rule, and repressive dictatorships;

Whereas socialism has repeatedly led to famine and mass murders, and the killing of over 100,000,000 people worldwide;

Whereas, since the November 2025 New York City mayoral election of a Democratic Socialist, candidates for public office affiliated with the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) have run in over one hundred elections in at least half the states;

Whereas the DSA's ideological tenet labeled ``Democracy for All'' calls for noncitizens and incarcerated criminals to vote in American elections;

Whereas the DSA's ideological tenet labeled ``A Democratic Congress'' calls for abolishing the U.S. Senate, implementing ranked choice voting in all elections, and replacing the two-party system;

Whereas, on February 19, 2026, the DSA stated ``[t]he United States of America has never been a democracy'';

Whereas the DSA's ideology and socialism, in any form, are incompatible with American values and the United States Constitution;

Whereas the State of New Jersey registered nearly 6,600 noncitizens to vote, with reportedly hundreds successfully voting in elections;

Whereas the Trump Administration's Department of Homeland Security engaged in a joint investigation with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), which charged four noncitizens with crimes connected to illegally voting in Federal elections and making false statements while applying for American citizenship;

Whereas, under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump, the Department of Homeland Security has made the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) service accessible to all states to find and remove ineligible noncitizens from state voter rolls;

Whereas multiple States have found documented instances of noncitizens illegally registered to vote as a result of access to the SAVE service;

Whereas, under Democrat leadership, several local jurisdictions in the United States of America allow noncitizens to vote in elections, diluting the votes of American citizens;

Whereas the United States House of Representatives has passed several bills, including the SAVE Act and the SAVE America Act, to require common-sense election integrity measures, including proof of citizenship, photo identification, and database checks;

Whereas the American people deserve to be confident that American elections are free, fair, and secure;

Whereas common-sense measures like providing photo identification to vote ensure that American elections are secure; and

Whereas only Americans should decide American elections: Now, therefore, be it

Resolved, That the House of Representatives--

        (1) condemns and denounces socialism in all its forms, 
    including the Democratic Socialists of America, and opposes the 
    implementation of socialist policies in the United States;

        (2) reaffirms its support for free, fair, and secure 
    elections;

        (3) reiterates the notion that American elections are for 
    American citizens only;

        (4) recommits itself to upholding the Constitution of the 
    United States; and

        (5) calls for enactment of the SAVE America Act to ensure 
    election security, increase public confidence in America's 
    voting system, and close loopholes in order to prevent 
    noncitizens from voting in elections.

A man who authorities say submitted two separate mail-in ballots during the 2024 general election now faces charges in federal court.

Jeffrey Pope, 65, of Washington Township was indicted in U.S. District Court in Pittsburgh on one count each of voter fraud and voting more than once in a federal election.

Their records show that Pope was registered as a Republican, a Department of State spokesperson said.
