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.
Good luck, there’s a reason that conservatism is inundated with hate.
It might be a lot easier to re-evaluate your own moral compass and realize that maybe if everyone you want to hang out with is full of hate, you need to find a new crowd.
Everyone is capable of grandstanding and shit-throwing. Politics just so happens to bring out the worst in people

It’s telling that OP will answer other *top comments, but not this one. Where you at, InfiniteGlitch@lemmy.dbzero.com?
Uncertain why but your tag did not give an notification.
To the question, it is not that ‘’I want to hang out with other hateful people’’ In fact, I do not at all. Majority with who I spent time with (real life and online) are left-leaning.
I was just curious if there are any conservative place without the hate but, it seems not. I thought Lemmy was a bit different in the sense that, I could question such a thing but to my surprise – I cannot.
Majority here freaks out about the question and start to hate. You have an different opinion than the majority here? Hate and downvotes it will be, just like Reddit. Which is fine, it’s online and anonymity does its job (I suppose lol).
People here perceive me suddenly ‘’hateful & bigot’’ due to 1 different opinion and 1 question which is funny to be honest. Even more funnier with the fact that, I actually have friends who are in LGBTQ and/or are in different political mindset, religion etc. The ‘’issue’’ I’m having is that I do not really fit either of the spectrum. Not Left nor Right, each time I end up in the middle (Centrum right). Therefore I was wondering how the right-side would be without the focus on hating but it seems, no luck to that.
Hope this answers the question. If not, feel free to tell and I will retry to explain it.
You weren’t being downvoted for having a different opinion. You we’re being downvoted for being an asshole.
You truly seem to have a problem, you have been in this thread and throwing stuff here and there.
It’s quite the opposite, you are the problem. Fact is, you can hate like crazy, spam like crazy and it won’t do a thing.
My life goes on, I’ll still use Lemmy and I will still keep asking controversial things.
If I’m an “asshole” in your eyes, that’s totally fine! I’m serious and why? Because you’re just a mere stranger on the internet trying to hard to make a point while being overly aggressive.
This will be my last message to you & Good luck with life!
Why are you getting so defensive? You need to not make this so personal for yourself
