Am I the only one who is sick and tired of having comments I make on a thread on FR trashed and bashed by left wingers masquerading as FReepers?

Amazing the number of usernames with early sign-up dates that I’ve never heard of.

You Too? I have been seeing that also, & I have been here for 25 years including my pre-signup Lurking.

Timely. This is the one year anniversary of humblegunner’s last post.

Time sure flies, spam master ETL was Zotted twice, quite a while before humblegunner.

I agree with that point. I don’t want to see anyone banned anywhere.

“This is nothing compared to what us old timers went through back in the late 90’s when FR first started.”

I started here in 1998. The place has always had nasty food fights. Some of us had to leave for awhile because W. Bush was a huge lightning rod and people like me hated him after being duped into voting for him, twice. The boss told us to stop blasting him and it’s his website.

We’ve always had a large moderate to left establishment contingent. And if you post anything outside the norm, you will get pounded. I don’t know who it was that said you gotta have a thick skin.

Who cares. If you have the receipts to slap them down - go ahead and engage. They generally can be made to disappear rather easily i find. Propaganda only can get them so far.

“””Am I the only one who is sick and tired of having comments I make on a thread on FR trashed and bashed by left wingers masquerading as FReepers?””””


I have noticed the same. And what interests me at that many of these “left wingers masquerading as FReepers” have sign on dates that are 20 years old.

Not all Freepers are true Conservatives. And unfortunately, valid comments are being censored on certain threads here too.

People have gotten ruder. I don’t post much anymore as a result. I left completely several times through the years and may again soon. It’s free speech. I get that, but I don’t have to participate. I’m just too old for this anymore. May they enjoy and accept responsibility for the world they create.

Those of us who are conservative need to remember our views are right and we can be secure. If you come across any liberal views, do what I do and take them on. Be polite, but unafraid to educate them.

Yes, I have noticed that TDSers & NeverTrumpers draw a lot of criticism on this site. Can’t imagine why.

I didn’t realize that your family and mine were so closely related. I’m glad i am getting old. It’s tiresome hearing all of the literal ram’s dung that idiots purport to be truth, or science or history, or facts.
Stupidity and ignorance are contagious diseases. Don’t become infected.

Jim, do you not see that a lot of us fully and energetically supported Trump in 2016 (with lots of initially hostility from Cruz supporters), then again in 2020. We are conservative and Trump is not. We've pushed back and encouraged Trump to do more, questioned his wobbly views at times, all in the spirit of what makes FR great. That we chose differently this year doesn't negate our conservative values, which I think you clearly hold as well. We just wanted a different standard bearor, less drama, more long-term wins, not fleeting EOs. Well, I suspect we'll see a lot of butthurt today as Trump will very likely being doing a complete 180 on DeSantis, singing his praises. Can the Trump supporters keep up?

By the way, where do conservative views fit nowadays? Do they get set aside and ignored when inconvenient? Is it now wrong to support, encourage, even demand them when a candidate doesn't step up sufficiently? If Trump is to be the nominee, don't we have a responsibility to speak up or are we to just quietly go along for the ride?
