This is a fascinating response, given the general atmosphere of Free Republic in which people comment and disagree, often, in commenting. Sometimes with rancor and sometime with humor. But disagreement can be found.
To ask " why on earth are you wasting your time telling us" suggests that this "daily amen™" thread, you expect no disagreement on this thread. Odd.
Here is the fascinating comment that elicited my fascinating response.
“Not my flag
Not my nation
Not my problem”
This original statement does not really call for any disagreement or discussion. It is basically a statement of indifference, which if true is a waste of everyone’s time and attention. Since the person did take the time and attention to write this, perhaps their goal is to motivate lack of interest in others. If anything could kill FR, it is a number of people adopting this lack of interest. If anything could kill the United States it would be a common attitude of disinterest, not paying attention to what is happening, and not even caring to vote. Kind of sounds what has happened to Russians under Putin. And maybe that was the goal of the commenter.

Gleeaikin implied no such thing. Gleeaikin welcomes disagreement; but rightfully points out that if one has no opinion one way or the other, then why post a comment saying that; as it adds nothing to the discussion.
