Is there there an equivalent to /r/askconservatives on Lemmy? (beehaw.org)

I appreciate opposing/different views as long as everyone is reasonable. That sub wasn't void of trolls but it seemed to be more or less balanced (not to be confused with /r/askaconservative). I still lurk but I refuse to interact on Reddit.

Although there are a lot more liberals than there are conservatives in this site and much of Lemmy, reasonable people making disagreeable opinions in good faith is allowed here. However, a conservative argument often gets replied to by several people so I can totally understand that it takes patience for a conservative to reply to everything calmly.

In any discussion, it's important to know where the boundaries are. When things get too far out of hand or away from the initial topic, it's time to drop it before getting too heated.
