I’m 13 and I loove conservative style or their music (kid rock). 1st question is…I don’t hate immigrants. Do I have to do it if I wanna be a real conservative? And also I’m a loving person so, am I not conservative for that? I have nothing to be hateful about in my life.

    You can have a few immigrants to not hate, as long as they’re from a symbolically useful group like white South African farmers fleeing “white genocide” or (if you’re cautious) anti-communist Cubans.

    • Why would you just go and say that?

      OP If you like the ‘conservative’ style then go for it. ‘Conservative’ does not mean you have to hate immigrants. Infact hating immigrants is related to anxiety and anxiety is related to mental disorders. Be a leader not a follower…

      You should be who YOU are, Not what others say you should be. I do nt know where you got the hating immigrants idea from but not every ‘conservative’ hates immigrants and those that do? Need help to stop. It is not something they do to be cool or fit in…

      Be yourself and stop worring what people think about you

    No that is absolutely not true, look at the Trump government, Melania and Musk are immigrants and are just fine.

    You have to hate people who are different from you . immigrant is just an easy way to say that. Native Americans are a traditional American target and they were here first.

    So no immigration has nothing to do with conservatism of trolling on Lemmy.

      That link is a decade old discussion of why emos cut themselves, which is highly simplified. I would not put too much stock into that discussion, if it really is what you are drawing “inspiration” from.

      Like whatever music you like, it doesn’t have to be be your identity. I listen to all kinds of rap music, and I am not from the hood, I don’t really do drugs, and the disrespect shown to women is not really my thing. But the songs are catchy, so I listen to them. Music has tended to be a separator at your age, even when I was in school. Rap kids vs rock kids vs country kids. Just be you, and listen to what you want.

      I would also say Liberals aren’t anti-rich. People can still have wealth under liberalism, it’s more the ultra rich; billions and billions of dollars is wildly excessive and you don’t really get there without the exploitation of others. You seem to like rock music; let me suggest a few bands.

      The Whole World is Watching by The Walking Papers is a pretty great song imo; it’s bluesy rock with some “aggressive” style singing. No screamo, but some power behind the voice.

      Sound and Silence by Dead Poet Society is also a good one I’ve been listening to a bit.

    Political affiliation has nothing to do with hate. We as humans are capable of hate no matter our beliefs.

    That said the converse is also true.
