I don't know how fun it is, but I do know that it makes the Free Republic community look stupid.
When PCR is posted and eighty or so freepers note how idiotic the article is, and then one or two show up and try to agree with the idiocy, I can't see the harm to FR.
In fact, it makes us look pretty good, I'd say.
If there were fifty iconoclasts spouting that crap, THEN we'd look bad.
