So, I’m more conservative leaning (European wise) but everywhere I go - the communities are usually filled with so much hate. That I just avoid it.

Is there any place that I can go where there’s not so much based on hate but more on actual discussions and such?

Though, I have been told that - European wise, it is considered more leaning to left in eyes of US. So bit confused.

Note; please keep it civil.

EDIT: Thanks for the responses (even the hateful ones lol), I got the grasp of what I asked. I’ll look into the suggestions that were made.

EDIT 2: I LOVE how some of you are saying that conservatives are so hateful and yet here you are. Doing the exact same thing. Quite cute and ironic lol! That said if it makes you feel better to spew hate on Lemmy go ahead.

I always thought that the “left side” were open minded and friendly but seems I was wrong, at least here on Lemmy. I suppose, Lemmy become Reddit 2.0. In that way.

      I don’t necessarily want fascists to be in society, but they should have a right to be there as long as they’re not actively hurting others.

        Their ideology is based on hurting other people. How do you not get that? They cant exist peacefully.

        If you’re ok with them being here, don’t be mad when I lump you in with them.

          If they actively hurt other people, then they should obviously be punished. How does my comment imply otherwise?

              Again, if they do turn violent, then you can punish them. What’s hard to understand about that?

                So wait til they start killing people openly before we identify their ideology as dangerous?

                We’re done here and you’re blocked. Either you have no place in this conversation or you’re being intentionally obtuse.

                Do you wait for a pedo to rape a child before doing something? NO! Someone is clearly fascist/pedo/nazi/racist/sexist/bigot they need to gtfo.

                  Pedophilia is a mental illness that one doesn’t choose to have. Pedophiles who haven’t molested a child deserve mental help, not to be ostracized.

                  There’s a difference between thinking of something and doing it. Many leftists dream of punching conservatives in the face but only a few of them actually do. The ones who refrained do not rate punishment from the government over a thoughtcrime.

          No, but if the police can’t do enough, I install an alarm and defend my personal space. I don’t want to arrest all potential thieves beforehand because they have “thievous” opinions. I don’t want to argue online, anyway: your nested comment (with a parent that has gone down the list due to pagination) made me found a bug in a Lemmy client that I’m developing so I am really grateful to you 😂 Thanks 🙏
