About USMB and it’s status as a “conservative(?) Board” etc.

Sort of reflects how the 2020 election would have went had it not been stolen.

Dems are basically outliers with a MSM rah-rah section.

2020 wasn't stolen.

On the front page, look at the people with the most reactions.

How many are left-leaning?

Freedom of speech doesn't happen for everyone here.

Not a good poll, have to tell you.

I read recently (during a rather recent one week vacation) that some folks consider USMB to be both very poorly moderated AND a conservative board.

I have to say, I think they’re wrong.

I consider this board a particularly safe haven for liberal nonsense. Sure, it’s not like the insane Democrap Underground or the daily kos (whateverthefuck that might mean). Libs do get pushback here. Maybe that’s why they don’t like it and consider it a “conservative” board. They prefer group-think style orthodoxy. Silly libs.

And the moderation here ain’t too bad, despite my oft expressed concerns about certain stupid very very stupid rules like “Zone 1” protection for racist threads. Oh, and this penchant mods have for “cleaning up” threads.

I’m not going to use this forum to start a poll. Just wondering. Who actually believes that this Board is overly represented by conservatives? I see many. But I see oceans of liberals too.

I see very few conservatives here. Loads of populist Trumpsters though.

Why not?

This forum bends over backward to favor Extremist Cons who support Sedition and Insurrecton. This forum allows members to endorse violence against U.S. Citizens and allows Cons to praise Russian Dictators.

No they are right. Mods here suck.

As for moderation just remember they are humans…

Exactly, we're all humans here.

 

[BackAgain]

Factless personal attacks is not pushback. As for the ideology here, primarily right wing.

You are faceless, here. So that’s meaningless. Personal attacks happen sometimes I see in OP’s. And I still see the main political ideology here as leftist.

 

[Dogmaphobe]

No they are right. Mods here suck.

But how many swallow?

 

[Circe]

Why not?

What, one page of a new thread on USMB? Bad as a poll. Okay as a discussion.

Well, darn, you say that like it's a BAD thing!

 

[Dogmaphobe]

I'd say this board does have a majority of posters who are middle to right and a sizeable number authoritarian leftists, but precious few liberals.

The current makeup of the mods is more left than right currently. It used to be more right than left, though.

You could always try becoming more likeable.

Ouch --- I NEVER get on that list! Never!! I watched it for awhile, but have given up in despair.

Why would I do that. I could not care less about those, just pointing out what the poster was speaking of

I sort of take it as a badge of honor not to be on the list

 

[BackAgain]

I have to agree, there are basically no conservatives on this forum.

There are a lot of Trumpers, there are a lot of Repubs but damn few conservatives.

Nonsense. As usual. I am a conservative. I am also pro Trump. Until he came along, the GOP couldn’t even say the word “conservative” in a credible way.

Is Trump perfect. Obviously not. But is he someone who’s willing to bust a move in a conservative direction, consistently? Yep.

Not a single word of truth ^ appears anywhere in your absurd post. In other words, your usual fare.
