I love Hive, all I can do is show people the door and it's up to the people to want to actually join. I always say and offer my advice if people have questions.
I initially joined Steem (obviously now Hive) because mainstream social media seemed so weird and unnatural to me. Everyone copying each other everyone lying and trying to seem cool. It's just a weird enviornment, usually 99 percent of the time all for nothing. Just clout or whatever. It's really pretty weird and pathetic.
Nowadays it seems that not only is social media weird, it's basically a democratic propaganda machine. Good luck being a conservative on Instagram and Twitter. There will be some support but soooo much hate.
I'm a Republican (should I capitalize Republican? LOL) and even though I see a lot of Democratic stuff on my newsfeeds, I barely ever go out of my way to harass people about their views, because I'm reasonable and understand people have different opinions.
It has gotten ridiculously bad. So bad. After growing up in public schools and then using mainstream social media, you almost forget that there are people with other opinions! It's true insanity! Unless you decide to look for conservative content, you will absolutely never find those sources! Not in any recommendations or suggestions on Youtube.
If you are reasonable you start to wonder like, who are these Democrats debating? Who are these mainstream media's opponents they keep speaking of? It's not even like anyone sees the other side's argument. It's truly just pushing the Democrats agenda.
How can Democrats push how bad Republicans are but literally never even show their point of views or logic? Do the Dems think people are that dumb and won't notice that something fishy is happening?
Recently I have been watching various Republican and even some Libertarian content online and WOW is it refreshing. I almost forgot real Republicans exist.
Being a Republican is not evil like everyone wants to say. It's just not.
So many Republican voices are shadow banned I honestly feel like ALL of them are shadow banned. When is the last time you have heard or seen a Republican show up literally anywhere on any type of newsfeed?
I have been attempting to spread the word about HIVE to various Conservative voices that I know are actively being silenced.
I hope that some may find and enjoy a home here on Hive.
