Consider doing a monthly auto-pay to Free Republic. You can do it anonymously and it will cost less than a Netflix subscription or a couple cups of Starbucks coffee.

Shoot. Make your coffee at home for ten cent a cup, and send the other twenty dollars to Free Republic.

I know you're here. Every day. This kind of entertainment and news HAS to be worth a dollar a day, right?

I’ve paid hundreds of dollars every year, for many years.

I used to think that FreeRepublic was a great resource.

Lately, I’ve had some reservations.

Oh, yes. I am going to check in on this thread later for entertainment purposes alone.

I’m neither crippled nor angry nor old. I can’t speak for the ladies but some do seem to talk a lot about Mentholatum Deep Heating Rub.

Generatio X, generation Z, millenials, generation LMNOP, they all run together and are meaningless to name as they are not dstinct in time.

You KNOW you don’t ever summon the latchkey kids. But you did and that means shit is getting real. So here I am.

Doing an auto-monthly. It’s not much, but it’s something. Maybe it’ll help. If nothing else, it’s a “whatever” to the folks who don’t help at all.

, the site is now dominated by crippled, angry, old men,

Or rather, a few angry, old men but also many wise elders vs. some arrogant, disrespectful elitist younger persons who think they know better and likely never experienced much hardship, and are largely ignorant of the the geopolitical nature of the world.

Your arrogance deters support, Meanwhile, when will the PayPal option be available?

I’m “Gen X”. I love it here.

I butt heads with folks from time to time, but have found some great folks to learn from and many have been prayer warriors when I’ve needed them.

Because the online payment system [vulgarity lite does not help].

See my above post in the PayPal option.

Biddies. Not bitties, baddies, buddies or budgies. It’s biddies.

Mostly peaceful and mostly sane peoole on Free Republic.

What else is going to make you chuckle, give you a snippet of what’s going on that could matter, AND let’s you come across a right thinking fellow American - all on your phone, and hardly any YELLING words.

If I only had Free Republic in college as I plopped down on the hallwsy floor beside my spinning backpack, outside the locked classroom door instead of the student paper TOILET PAPER to read....or my library civil war/vietnam war history book.

See! Hardly any yelling.

All right, all right, so much insistence...I am Gen X and I just contributed. I started reading Free Republic around 2005, and except for some brief few months, I never logged in or made comments because I wasn’t contributing. Now that I am, I will start commenting. My first comment is - I agree with some posts here, and a previous one of one member who left this site recently and stated his / her reasons in detail: it has lost a little of the good old, healthy, intellectual discussion. It has become a little of “get lost”, “don’t listen to the judges”, “so what”.
