Lost Freepers: What ever happened to FReepers such as...
NativeNewYorker
Gee nobody mentioned Atator LOL. A strong second place to Rivero in Tinfoil follies.
If I were to guess, I’d say they were taught the RevWar was fought by the British to liberate the Indians from the Tea Party terrorists.
Just a guess...Probably right though.
I’ve been openly critical of Newt AND Sarah Palin, and I have never even been warned. Perhaps these people also lacked basic social skills and manners.
Ayn Rand had it right. Anyone who comes up with a new idea, works hard, and/or lives responsibly has a monkey on their back. Strive to get ahead and the takers are right there demanding a cut. The takers don’t even see anything wrong with it. They’re owed it by virtue of being born.
It’s like the story of the golden goose. The takers wanted more, so they pumped more food (government debt) into the goose to get more eggs. Now the goose has a funnel taped in its throat, they’re force feeding it, and they’re squeezing the poor goose to get it to shoot out a few more eggs. The goose still lives...barely, but it’s definitely on its last legs.
That is him.
You got the name correct.
The circle probably shrunk because shilling for the GOP and excusing their BS isn’t conductive to the reason most people come here. And people who do shill are shredded without mercy. Been that way a long time.
But lately ‘feelings’ rule many minds here so we see more shilling. And so, more shredding.
Frantzie was right in a general sense, but he only came to that realization recently, after millions of conservatives have been preaching it, writing on it and refusing to watch TV for 40 and 50 and 60 years.
Frantzie was a nut who kept telling bizarre tales of Islam controlling Fox, and his golfing in Iceland or something and whacky stuff.
Here is an imitation I did of him after he was banned.
To: Inyo-Mono
You only say that because Saudis control 175% of Fox and TV is controlling your mind and I haven’t watched TV in a year and I live in Iceland or Massachusetts or somewhere and Fox is controlled by the Saudis.

Yes, that was Allegra, and it wasn't "supposedly". She did work for a gov't sub-contractor in the Middle East, and posted plenty of pics to prove it. I really miss her, too. She was definitely one of the more interesting (and very NICE) FReepers I've seen here over the years.
I miss a LOT of FReepers who have been banned, or the *many* who have left FR on their own since about the spring of 2007 or so...
Oh good grief! You've lost track of the start of this whole thing...I didn't bring up the subject. I answered someone else's question.
Doesn't do you any good to jump all over me for answering a question.
Thank you!
Trust me on this ~ she left this forum way before she was banned. (And yes, she did go anti-freeper).
Oh, Just as a side note/follow up on the music industry/socialism thing...
The post defending capitalism and correctly blaming sicialism was pulled. (not me ;). But the following reply to is, below, remains...
“- you’re crazy dude...Capitalism ate itself out and look what a mess were in right now...start taxing, educating people, healing people etc etc...and keep those greedy wall street people in check !!!!”
THAT is the mentality we are dealing with.
Amen. I really miss Allegra... :-(
No supposedly about it. She worked in Iraq for six/seven years.
That describes a lot of good FReepers who have "departed" since the spring of 2007...
The problem with allowing true blue liberals to post is that it can become very disruptive. Most people have “facts” to back up their positions. I don’t like threads where each side keeps listing those facts, especially statistics, and no minds are changed. Then you have the moral issues. If someone thinks two guys sodomizing each other or chopping up babies in (or barely out of) the womb is OK, then there’s nothing you or I can say that’s going to change their mind.
Spoken like a true retread. Who did you used to be before you rode the lightning?
