A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

and when has a left boycott ever been effective? Never.

That said, I thought the exemption for bakeries was strange.

Greg Flynn doesn't own Panera. He owns some franchise units. JAB holdings is the one that owns Panera.

Seems pretty straightforward from a quick skim. They publicly supported a white nationalist/fascist. And a fun fact about white nationalists and fascists, they are hell bent on taking peoples rights away.

I don't see any evidence that soul cycle supported a "white nationalist". Don't know why the race of a nationalists is important to this discussion but we are not discussing your race hangups right now. Your source claims that an owner of a company that invested in soul cycle hosted a Trump fund raiser.

What specific rights were you people fighting for by boycotting soul cycle?

You're 0 for 2 on your claims the company had no connection to the fundraiser and you can't list any rights you were fighting for.

I assume you’re trying to have a discussion with pizza. He has a weird fascination with white nationalist and calls a random people white nationalist. When ask for proof, he just babbles and claims you’re moving the goal post.

He has a weird fascination with white nationalist and calls a random people white nationalist.

Given that neo nazis are publicly and openly marching in the streets, I wouldn't call it a weird fascination. It's a legitimate concern for anybody who cares about their rights, the rights of others, or democracy.

When ask for proof, he just babbles and claims you’re moving the goal post.

When you ask for proof you ignore the proof and move on to the next thing. You always get that treatment because that's always what you do.

Garbage in, garbage out. If you wanted to have honest discussion, you need to be honest. But you're not, so it's what you get.
