The presence of a conservative space is not enough to warrant defederation in my opinion. We don't want to be an echo chamber. It's entirely possible to be conservative on some issues and still respect all humans. I would also argue that voting conservative in the US currently would almost certainly invalidate ones respect for self autonomy but that's a more nuanced discussion and is very US centric
Is it really? Being "socially conservative" means you're just a bigot against women and/or minorities. Being "economically conservative" means you're just a bigot against the poor.
Idk, what would be an example of a conservative position that does respect all humans?
That said, it's not a Broad stroke generalization that all Conservatives are alike, just as not all Liberals are alike. Don't paint the individual with the group, 100%.
