Request to mod c/conservative

c/conservative has been left modless. I'd like to request to moderate and clean up any misinformation on this community.

I am consistently online here and prepared to take on the responsibility.

Thank you for your consideration!

The requested community link is !conservative@lemmy.world

Additionally, I'd also like to request !fastfood@lemmy.world as for that one it seems a spam account created it and has since been abandoned for months

ETA:

Given the controversial nature of the comms topic, I have decided to add a proposed set of rules that I was thinking about, to keep it strictly parody without going off the rails:

Parody With Purpose: This is a space for humorous takes on conservative politics. We welcome satire, but draw the line at content that promotes racism, sexism, homophobia, or other forms of bigotry.

Memes Over Manifestos: This community focuses on humor and parody, not serious political debate. There are plenty of spaces for earnest conservative discussion—this isn't one of them.

Highlight Contradictions: The best content points out inconsistencies and hypocrisies in conservative talking points. Creative commentary is encouraged.

Public Figures Fair Game: Politicians and pundits can be satirized, but no targeting of private individuals, doxxing, or harassment.

No News Zone: Memes only, news should be sent to the nearest relevant comm

Clear Satire: Make your satirical intent reasonably clear. We're here to mock bad ideas, not accidentally spread them.

Relevant Content: All posts should relate to conservative politics or ideologies in some way.

Community Respect: Disagree with fellow members all you want, but personal attacks aren't welcome. Save the criticism for the ideas, not each other.

Moderation Discretion: Mods will use reasonable judgment in applying these rules. We'll be fair, but firm.

Remember The Purpose: This community exists as a pressure valve—a place to process through humor the often frustrating world of conservative politics.

The fact you have spend this thread downvoting me while we discuss what a good moderator would look like tells me your not the right fit to be a moderator.
It's clear your just looking for a fight, and you want to be a moderator to have a one sided fight with the very few actual conservatives on lemmy.
- Do you really think one person downvoted you 44+ times?
  
  I can see downvotes, I know exactly who did what. And for the purposes of someone wanting to moderate a community being so emotional that they downvote consistently people bringing up reasonable concerns... That tells me they are not ready to moderate that community
  
  OP laid out ten reasons they should be a mod. I see nothing similar from you.
  So far the community at large agrees they should be a mod.
  And again, they haven't downvoted you almost 50 times.
  
  And i have demonstrated why they are not a good mod for the community.
  As I said in the first post better to shut the community off then make it into a parody community.
  I don't know why you believe I think all the downvotes are theirs. I clearly don't think that.
  
  OP laid out ten reasons they should be a mod. I see nothing similar from you.
  Saying you demonstrated something doesn't mean you've actually done it.
- He's not the only one down voting you.
- Lmao, I thought we were having a decent debate, but ig you were unable to counter my latest points so you switched to complaining about....how I vote? Even though it's clear others are downvoting you as well lol
