Welcome!

Welcome to the_2nd. This is a community I've been wanting to create for discussion of political issues. In particular, though, I want a community where those of us with conservative leanings (or people interested in conservative ideals) can get together and discuss things. Given that much of the Internet (especially on Dreamwidth and similar sites) seems to consist of endless liberal discuss, it seems like a good idea to have a place for conservatives to get together and discuss things.

There are some rules up in the bio of the community. Please read them. I will not be happy if people come in here and try to cause trouble. I believe that Dreamwidth is the kind of place where people can get together and discuss things in a way that is constructive, informative, and interesting. Even for those of us who don't necessarily follow the majority opinion.

Thanks for reading. I'll post some actual content here in a bit, I already know what I want to talk about first, but it might take me a little while to find the right article and put together my thoughts on the matter.

Yeah, similar. I don't want to apply any particular party labels for fear of scaring people off, but yes, I consider myself probably closest to libertarianism (lowercase l) than other political ideals.

*nod* (the lowercase l in my question was deliberate)
