I have been since about that time as well. I have never seen so much hate and venom towards FReepers that simply disagree about Trump. Shame. It was so much more civil and informative in the old days.
I agree totally! I've witnessed too much hate and venom all around FR since The Great Purge of 2007. And it only intensifies every four years during the primaries.
I've learned to never reveal who I am supporting in the primaries anymore... it just isn't worth it.
My list of good FRiends who no longer post on FR grows longer every year... sad.
