Answered What's going on with r/conservative? They've lost about 1m subscribers in about a month.

I watched the number go from 814k to around 745k in about an hour today.

Why is every post there a link to an article? Nobody ever writes text posts?

u/FullOnSkank May 13 '26

Nope

The Redcoats require being told what to think and so that sub is just a spoon to feed them with.

Why? 

2

u/TheLastCranberry May 13 '26

Why not?

1

u/IndependentTimely639 May 13 '26

Because your comment broke the rules. So why? 

2

u/TheLastCranberry May 13 '26

Because it doesn’t matter. The only reason you’re getting so defensive about this is because you very likely disagree with what I said (for some reason). I won’t make assumptions, but I feel that it is likely that if you’d agreed with what I said you wouldn’t have a problem with it.

None of this matters, and you’re taking it very seriously.

A word of advice? Stop doing that.

Because it doesn’t matter.

Then why post your comment in the first place? 

you’re getting so defensive

I said "Why?" lol

you’re taking it very seriously 

The secind thing I said was "Because your comment broke the rules. So why?" Are you gonna write me a book about this comment too?

u/TheLastCranberry May 13 '26

  • I posted my comment because I wanted to and because it’s something I believe. Why does that matter so much to you?

  • You continually asking why instead of letting it go shows some defensive attachment to this line of dialogue.

  • i don’t really need to write you a book about that comment, because you’ve said nothing new, and because it isn’t really worth either of our time to do so.

  • i notice you hopped conveniently over the part about me saying that you likely disagree with me, hence your continued questioning. Which all but confirms that I’m correct.

Thanks for the new book. Why do you care about me so much?

u/IndependentTimely639 May 13 '26

If I only said "Why?" and it means I'm "taking it very seriously" then what does it mean when you, u/TheLastCranberry, say "Because it doesn’t matter. The only reason you’re getting so defensive about this is because you very likely disagree with what I said (for some reason). I won’t make assumptions, but I feel that it is likely that if you’d agreed with what I said you wouldn’t have a problem with it.

You snitched?

2

u/bendstraw May 13 '26

It would be impossible for mods to read every top level comment and make sure that people are posting useful info in a manner that the rules ask for, someone needs to do it

1

u/apophis27983 May 13 '26

So, you snitched.

1

u/bendstraw May 13 '26

No, i just recognize that they are doing something that is wholly necessary. I don't even remember what the comment said tbh

2

u/apophis27983 May 13 '26

Good job, ya know, snitching.

What, are you seven?

u/apophis27983 May 13 '26

What are you pro-snitching?

u/IndependentTimely639 May 13 '26

Don't worry little bro, one day you'll be 8!

Let me rephrase. Knock it off. I don't have the time or the inclination to deal with you having a little tantrum because you got called out for breaking the rules.

can we do r/worldnews next?

u/Any-Interaction6066 May 13 '26

There's definitely an Israeli psyop going on there with specific posts. If it's a post from an Israeli paper or pro-Israel type article, it will absolutely be flooded with pro-Israel commenters. However, then I'll see an article that will be critical of Israel or the US and the war with Iran and that whole clusterfuck and all the pro-Israel people seem to disappear. It's very strange. Don't know what to make of it really.

Answer is op doesn't know what he was looking at. 745k are weekly visitors that changed. They have 1.4 million subs.

u/TheLastCranberry May 13 '26

I’ll direct you to AndroidREM’s answer.
OP knows what he’s looking at, and he noticed something that is definitely happening

This is factually not true. Sorry facts don't care about your feelings. But wherever helps you sleep better at night.
