Is this actually conservative normally? Is it just being heavily brigaded right now?

This is a new community on a platform that has had a massive surge of users, so there are going to be growing pains for a bit. My goal as a mod is to allow for conversation on both liberal and conservative ideas, and I believe several other mods agree with me. We may become more strict if this does become a liberal community, though.
An important tool for the mod team too is you guys flagging/reporting posts and comments. I check in almost every day and have received no reports for over two weeks. As the community grows, this will become even more important since we can’t read every post or comment. I have read nearly every one though, lol.

Then it’s misleading to call it c/conservative. You should have named it c/liberalVSconservative or c/PoliticalDebate instead. Conservatives don’t have any dedicated outlet on Lemmy yet and here you steal the name and allow non-stop brigading.
Given the level of liberal bias on this community, I wouldn’t be suprised if you’re a lib who co-opted the name for insideous proposes. Lemmy is essentially a cesspool for libs.
It’s c/conservative, not c/ConservativeEchoChamber.
I am just a lowly mod; not the creator, admin, or head mod of this community.
I see liberal comments, but I wouldn’t say this is a liberal community. Maybe more moderate than you like, but I don’t know your views.
I am very much conservative, and every day living in California with friends who say they hate conservatives and would never date a conservative or break up with someone who has conservative views further cements my conservatism.
