Say good-bye to a once very good conservative website. Apparently the stupidity is strong at Salem. They could have gone with Disqus but choose the ZuckerBorg System.

How long before Facebook suspends their account?

Didn’t post/comment before, for sure won’t now. And marky mark will gain some more income to pay his 16 security guards.

So in order to post at that conservative site, you have to post using software that censors conservative posts?

Trump should be fine with it.

QUICK: Mr. Trump, let’s stay on this issue of immigration. You have been very critical of Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook who has wanted to increase the number of these H1Bs.

TRUMP: I was not at all critical of him. I was not at all. In fact, frankly, he’s complaining about the fact that we’re losing some of the most talented people. They go to Harvard. They go to Yale. They go to Princeton. They come from another country and they’re immediately sent out.

I am all in favor of keeping these talented people here so they can go to work in Silicon Valley.

QUICK: So you’re in favor of…

(CROSSTALK)

TRUMP: So I have nothing at all critical of him.

Used to comment on baseball games at ESPN but they switched to this Facebook garbage too.

The comments went to almost zero.

I don't do Facebook
Many people distrust them

This is, IMHO, a very bad move for their business model

The comments there were the bed part. Always witty.

Too bad.

I will never understand why no one else uses something like we have at FR. IMHO, this comment system is orders of magnitude superior to anything else in existence: you can easily go back to a comment being replied to, or find replies to a comment. It looks clean and is a pleasure to read. I have always thought that the Robinsons (assuming it is their work) should sell it.

As for HA, it always struck me as odd that the posters are almost as smart as we are at FR, but the bloggers are, generally speaking, maroons.

HotAir has been about as conservative as the GoPe. I rarely post comments at that site and won’t miss it once it goes facebook.

FaceBook?

So, your Mom, your Boss and your entire high school graduating class will know that you had a boating accident and lost your guns?

Commenters provide content, which was high quality at Hot Air.
Once they leave, there’s no point in advertising, no one will show up to see ads. I hope Zuckerberg pays Salem very well for whoring the site out. In a couple years Hot Air will be the new Charles Johnson. Who? everyone will say.

Hey Ed!

Some conservatives are smart enough to avoid FaceBook!

Bye!

I love their snarky headlines. They do have good articles and I’m also a poster there. But no more. I barely use Facebook to begin with.

"Conservative" Blog Hot Air To Switch To Facebook Format For Posting Comments

You mean the clueless Libertarians that run that site are going to funnel more money to the Left Wing kooks that run Facebook?

Yeah, that's a grand plan.
