I don't know of any offical "rules" but generally, one always posts the name of the freeper if he is responding to them or critiquing them... IOWS....you don't talk about someone in a post unless you make them aware of it (ping them)....

one shouldn't carry grudges from thread to thread....

one should DONATE to the freepathon.

If you don’t know that means you have not done any activism and you are a wuss. It’s because of crazy people like you we had to make rules.

The rules are listed on the Homepage.

When you find someone not following the quite simple and clear guidelines, copy and paste them TO the person contravening these rules, with a gentle reminder about how we here love active debate, we don’t like rudeness, obscene language, or baseless/ ad hominem attacks on anything.

You can beat your opponent to a bloody pulp using facts. You CANNOT browbeat or use violent language to try and push your point. Civility is preferred, but if you can prove your point with fact, it is optional.

You’re forming a group of yahoos?

These days, they shouldn’t be very hard to find.

Never read the articles including clicking on the link to read more than the excerpt.

But, comment on the unread article anyway.
Be fierce and sure about your comment.

If someone calls you a paid troll…….accept your fate and claim the hefty salary on your taxes.
