As for why I’m here, there’s no post filtering on the “all communities” section. Putting yourself firmly on one side or another of a political system is, in my opinion, feeding into the machine that’s designed to keep us fighting each other instead of holding people in power accountable. So no, I’m not a conservative any more than I’m a liberal.
As for this post specifically, people with trans children aren’t dragging their kids into surgery. It’s a tough decision, and while I’m personally not comfortable with people making that decision, it’s their choice to do so. That’s the definition of freedom. Why do you care what people do with their bodies?

This is a good and reasonable take that I agree with.

I don’t care what people do with their bodies. I didn’t make this post, but that also doesn’t mean I’m going to remove this post.
The voting system is working as intended with this post at -47, I am not of the opinion that moderators should do all that much moderation when there’s a voting system, the members of the community will vote up/down what they do/don’t want to see and what they do/don’t like, however, that system has the inherent flaw of “people that are not conservatives voting on conservative posts”, which goes for any community really, but this one is particularly divisive.
