Recently, two Freepers who have some measure of prominance outside the forum have been damaged by liberals and/or Democrats. Jeff Gannon has resigned as a White House reporter, and the individual who goes by the name NCPAC has left his position in Maryland.
J. Gannon wasn't necessarily damaged by anything he posted here, but NCPAC was damaged by the work of a Democrat mole or a Washington Post reporter who revealed his freepmails.
It should be possible to post on this forum with anonymity and to be able to really discuss what's on your mind without worrying about Democrats trying to ruin your professional life, so, in order to help prominent Republicans who may wish to be an active member of Free Republic, I'm formulating some suggestions that I would like to have new users see.
This is what I have so far, as far as guidelines to help our prominent freepers avoid damage in the future:
If You Are A High-Profile Individual In “Real Life”….
If your daily job is such that you are a high-profile individual – as example, an official in a Republican campaign, or a state official in a Republican administration, or a rightward-leaning reporter – please read this article and take these suggestions.
- Please don’t reveal your identity. Please don’t drop hints as to who you are. Please don’t succumb to the temptation to show off a little and thusly compromise your anonymity.
- Know that there are Democrat operatives (and now, it appears, Legacy Media reporters) who pretend to be loyal conservatives. They will attempt to get you to reveal damaging information about your candidate, your administration, or your media enterprise.
- This is for ALL Freepers: Never reveal any personal contact information. Please don’t post (or share in Freepmail) any email accounts, private phone numbers, addresses, or places of employment – unless you really know and trust the person to whom you are revealing these things.
- Know that Freepmail can be, and sometimes is, exposed publicly. Please, never say anything in Freepmail that you would not want posted on the public forum. Please, people, add whatever you think might be helpful, and I will post the result as a new article.
Seriesly, I thought p9 was The Hedgehog.
That and having the proper mindset that goes with it.
It's easier for libs to pose as Paleos or anticorporate populists than moderates. That way they can be anti-war and anti-Walmart.
Many trolls are focused on steering Freepers into 3rd party votes. That's what I'd do if I trolled on DU.
Also, my patrol car parked out front is a dead givaway.
BTTT...MUD
El pingo.
Like your website, sir. Very nice.
I shouldn't say this because there are some DUmmies around, but the thing to do if you're trolling is to sound MORE left than they are. It's kind of fun if you can get the hang of it.
Frankly, I don't care if they figure out who I am. So what? I'm pretty open about my views anyway.
bookmark and ping.
....they might come after you if you have your own Buckhead moment.....
Great point! Now that Buckhead has been exposed, and his picture posted during the Freeper Ball,
Now he's gotta pull a Katherine Willey and be afraid for his cat; check his tires; and get a remote starter for his car!
Bummer!
I would get into big trouble if I parked a patrol car in my driveway!
Thanks !
Why is that?
It was kind of a lame joke.
I'm glad I only post horrid pictures of skerry and FatBoy and well, maybe KHillary, too...
LOL
Please don't. I so enjoy it!
