Time to go

Posted on 03/29/2016 9:55:02 AM PDT by jstaff

When Sundance replaced Mark Levin in the hearts of so many Freepers, I should have taken the hint. The site has become almost totally partisan. That partisanship is leading to such incredible, slanderous commentary that you would have to look twice to see if you are at FR or DU. We talk about a circular firing squad, and here one pops up. We are destroying our chance to move the ultra left out of the White House by trying to destroy each other.

So finally, sadly, I think it is time for me to go, I don't want to be a part of it anymore. I have mostly enjoyed my time here, it used to be a great place, and I was happy to add what little support I could to keeping it up.

To Jim: please check your mail. I sent you a request to delete my account information, but I guess you haven't seen it yet. Good luck with FR and I hope it survives this election cycle without any real bloodshed.

Mods: Please delete my FR account.

This is still a very fun place in spite of the current war. Check my history and trace back to the posts that I laughed over.

It is true that controversy builds teams. Pretending to get along on a team is a waste of time.

I imagine there are many who are contemplating the same thing. I wish you well.

I understand jstaff but it’s a mistake to write an opus.

I don’t even want to read what the little trumpers have to say to someone who maybe used to be their friend or at least someone they enjoyed talking to.

How about pretending to be civil?

How about not insulting another poster’s intelligence and not making nasty sexual innuendos about people.

Yes, things have been rough around here, but it probably would've been better to take a "vacation" from FR for awhile, then come back after the primaries are over.

Who or what is Sundance?

Yes civil is good. Absolutely. Humor and sarcasm are fun though.

Do you remember the threads - Caption this pic?

I used to be in tears laughing. Freepers are brilliant.

It’s still fun if your tag line is ‘trump or goldman sachs’

Not so much if it’s ‘Cruz for our country.’

I still enjoy free republic but some of the people here have forgotten to be nice.

I make pointed comments and am not shy about criticizing Trump when he deserves it which is very often but I don’t think I’m as nasty to others here as they have been to me.

But I’m hanging in. I think Ted Cruz will prevail and I think that if he does we can beat Hillary.

Your argument about Ted’s birth will never stand up and you know it.

It is a last desperate attempt to stop a man who is twenty times more conservative, more intelligent, more informed and more stable mentally and emotionally than the deranged Donald Trump.

But keep screaming about it if it helps you sleep.

No real conservative would ever knowingly subvert the original intent of the Constitution... What a service Cruz is performing... outing the fake conservatives.

Many people just stop participating, and that increases the impression that FR is nothing but a p___g contest, usually between two people, which just ruins the thread. It’s a problem that causes itself to get worse, like many other problems.

The Bus! Getting way crowded under there.

Have any of you trumpers stopped to look at all the people you’ve alienated? And who you’ve thrown under the bus for their honest opinions which differ from yours.

First of all, you’ve alienated a lot of fellow freepers. Someone posts an article about Trump’s strange position on abortion which he changes the next day ... and all the responses vary from insulting the poster to insulting Ted Cruz.

Very few little trumpers address the issue of the odd things Trump is saying (and then un-saying) about abortion.

Why? Because they can’t.

But they can’t be quiet either. They have to attack the poster and attack Cruz.

And you’ve thrown former loved radio conservatives under the old bus and yesterday, poor old Ann Coulter is clinging to the underside of the bus.

It’s not a recipe for making friends.
