      Imagine naming yourself SpaceCowboy, but not understanding that Cowboy Bebop is an obvious critique of capitalism.

        I’m sure they’re only called space cowboy because gangster of love was taken

          Ah yes, Steve “[the left is] as unpleasant as the people on the extreme right” Miller. That clears things up nicely.

          The sign-off to almost every show for Cowboy Bebop is “See you, space cowboy.” They call bounty hunters in the story cowboys. Hell, it’s in the danm name of the show.

          In Firefly, however, while it is a western themed space sci-fi, none of the characters are cowboys.

        Imagine thinking the term Space Cowboy originated in a cartoon made in 1998.

        Here’s a cool song that was apparently inspired by Cowboy Bebop LOL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h66V1hYAjG0

      hmm … know who else has a lot of oil… somewhere verrrry close to you… you might even be standing on it.

      wait, are you saying that we should nationalize the US oil industry to achieve socialism?

      I agree!

        Biggest oil producer in the world, from stolen land, publicly subsidized to generate private profits.

      In the early 20th century, about 50 years before Norway discovered oil, they were already per capita among the richest countries in Europe. This was because of their culture of land and resource sharing.

      Norway’s oil profit all goes to their sovereign fund and does not enter their national budget.

A community to satirize conservtive and right-wing “ideals”.

This community (now) exists as a pressure valve, a place to process through humor the often frustrating world of conservative politics. Above all, this is NOT the place for serious conservative support/viewpoints/arguments. There are other places on Lemmy for that if you desire it.

Rules:

  1. Always follow .world instance rules

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Highlight Contradictions: Sometimes the best content points out inconsistencies and hypocrisies in conservative talking points. Creative commentary is encouraged.

  5. Public Figures Fair Game: Politicians and pundits can be satirized, but no targeting of private individuals, doxxing, or harassment.

Children of public figures under the age of 14 are also off-limits, a 16 year old has enough free agency to break with or adopt their parents views. An 8 year old kid doesn’t.

  1. No News Zone: Memes only, news or other serious content should be sent to the nearest relevant comm. Meme’s of current events, however, are encouraged.

  2. Clear Satire: Make your satirical intent reasonably clear. We’re here to mock bad ideas, not accidentally spread them. If you’re unsure how it will be taken, feel free to DM the mod team ahead of time or explicitly tag it as satire in the body.

A note on ChadMcTruth: Chad’s content is 100% satire, but his work can sometimes be hard to tell, but if he posted it be assured, its satire.

  1. Relevant Content: All posts should relate to conservative politics or ideologies in some way somewhere in your post. Either in the title or the meme itself.

For more general political memes please see !politicalmemes@lemmy.world

  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.

  2. Moderation Discretion: Mods will use reasonable judgment in applying these rules. We’ll be fair, but firm. These kinds of comms have a tendency to get off the rails, so we might seem overzealous in moderation sometimes.

  3. For the moment, i’m allowing properly tagged NSFW content as long as its funny and relevant. Don’t make me regret it.

And above all, HAVE FUN!
