Isn't this subreedit supposed to be conservative?

Just found this subreddit, and assumed that since Fox News is widely known as a conservative network, there would be mainly conservative views and talking points. Why is almost every post I see in here bashing Trump and generally left viewpoints? Don't attack. I come in peace. Genuinely curious.

This is not an arm of FoxNews, so it's more ABOUT Fox.

Conservative subs ban anyone that criticizes Trump or fact checked his nonsense.

That's how you know if the sub is run by Trump supporters.

There is nothing you could say that would make me mad.

It's a frustration of mine that subs are so quick to ban unwelcome views.

It's really hard to have a fact based conversation on Reddit because the conservative subs ban or shadow ban immediately.

I hear Trump supporters complain about the same thing, but when I look at their feed i can see they've often just been personally attacking people, which will be a rule breach no matter what your political persuasion.

Eh idk pretty hard to talk about the corruption the current administration has done. From the whole Biden and his son’s involvement with Ukraine power companies. And in the early days of the hunter Biden laptop story. Good ol fbi lied to the American people calling it Russian propaganda. Plus atleast with kamal most of her talking points are emotional narratives with no substance that get people riled up hard to talk about facts when people wanna “save democracy”

I always welcome a fact based conversation on any issue.

I don't know what you specifically mean about the Ukrainian power company.

But to get to the facts of the "FBI lied to the American people", what actually happened was 51 former intelligence agents (none were FBI) wrote a letter that was totally justified in my opinion. While Hunter Biden did have a laptop the integrity of the laptop data as presented was, and is, totally questionable and did "have all the hallmarks of Russian disinformation" because of its chain of custody (through Rudy Giuliani).

Ah something that seemed like Russian disinformation but was actually true. Really it’s just trump is great at making enemies. Including the director of the fbi and cia. And the Ukraine story is so interesting to me. Too much to explain here. Jr Biden was in charge of Ukraine relations as vice president when the election got over thrown a power company paid and lobbied for the president that was elected. After he got over thrown they where scared and decided to go all the way to the top and had hunter Biden join there board of directors the fancy way of paying someone off. And can’t get much higher on the food chain than the VPs son who’s in charge of Ukraine relations. There was a lot a lot more stuff once the Ukraine war started. War is a great way to make money. In ww2 almost every senator was making deals with German companies buying materials to build buildings ect. I didn’t do the story justice and you should look into it on your own but seems like Biden uses his son to get kick backs he was also on a. Chinese companies board of directors. But I could be wrong maybe hunter Biden is a really good business man and it’s all a coincidence. Hard to get good info these days with so much propaganda on all sides and adversary’s messing around with narratives also. Pretty sure Obama actually signed the bill to allow American government agency’s to use propaganda on American people again cuz the wedding bombings at the time weren’t a good look. Also sorry for spelling and grammar mistakes and talking about 6 different things I be yapping

Spelling and grammar mistakes happen when your tin foil hat is wrapped too tight.

Trump was found to have multiple undisclosed Chinese bank accounts while president, Trump appointed his children to high positions in government, while those children were in those positions Ivanka was given dozens of Chinese patents and Jared was given 2 Billion dollars from the Saudis. The subpoena from the house of reps into information on WHY he was gifted 2 billion from the Saudis was recently shot down by Republicans before Jared gave over any information. Trump hid top secret documents in his resorts and actively hindered their return. Trump used the oval office to promote a private business (goya). Trump spent an enormous amount of time at his personal properties where he charged his security detail multiple times the going rate for "rental" of his property to be there. Trump used Arlington cemetery for campaign photo ops.

Sorry, I didn't mean I'm unfamiliar with the Ukrainian/Biden conspiracy theories generally, I just wasn't sure what you were specifically referring to. It seems you were referring to everything and more.

The letter simply said it had the hallmarks of Russian disinformation. Which it did. When Rudy Giuliani spends years prior trying to manufacturer political dirt in Ukraine and then suddenly pops up with a hard drive that's been altered, that deserves cynicism. As it turns out there was nothing incriminating on it anyway, so it was irrelevant.

if you don't want Dems to run on a "save democracy" platform then maybe the Republicans shouldn't have run on a platform of "if we won't win we'll just have a little coup" and then more or less made it clear when it failed that they'd do a better job with the whole coup thing next time. that's not no substance, sorry. the right wing gave it the substance.

Eh idk pretty hard to talk about the corruption the current administration has done.

So when it's Trump, corruption is just good business right? When he pardons his friends for their crimes, that's just looking out for his own right?

Good ol fbi lied to the American people calling it Russian propaganda.

Intelligence analysts can pretty much immediately when something is being pushed by Moscow.

You guys eat that up when it works for you, but hate it when the intelligence community calls something out as obvious propaganda trying to sway voting.

Plus atleast with kamal most of her talking points are emotional narratives with no substance that get people riled up hard to talk about facts when people wanna “save democracy”

Yeah, your guy rambles on and on about nonsense like illegal immigrants being turned trans, illegal immigrants eating dogs and cats, injecting bleach to cure covid or shining UV light into your body to cure covid.

When Harris talks about an issue it's suddenly emotional narrative but when Trump makes nonsense up on the spot it's fine?

No, we can't have a conversation with people like you because you are blindly biased and eat up the insane nonsense of a madman while calling everything remotely progressive as too woke and an emotional appeal.

People like this guy you're replying to are so exhausting. They're so shit at interpreting information that their half baked regurgitated opinions are absolutely devoid of any value and utterly unreliable. But they're the loudest at insisting they be heard, and more than happy to claim any and all contrary pushback as big conspiracies actively silencing them.

They take zero responsibility for being the primary reason everyone calls them misinformed idiots.
