I used to love a calm discussion on the Mars landings, or the threads on our troops progress and heroic actions. They have pretty much disappeared on this forum. It's going down hill like a Semi load of Hogs with no brakes.

It's sad. But as long as ideological purity trumps character - nasty, vitriolic attacks are going to be allowed here - and good, decent, kind and intelligent people will be pushed away.

" ideological purity trumps character "

Oh get over your victimhood.

FR is a conservative site. We fight FOR the first and second amendments. We fight for traditional American conservative values. We fight for God, country, family, life and liberty!

If you're going to hang around FR, get used to it.

But as long as ideological purity trumps character -

Start with a false attack on your opponents that they seek purity.

nasty, vitriolic attacks are going to be allowed here

Follow it up with projection.

and good, decent, kind and intelligent people will be pushed away.

And then the whine to close the deal.

Of course, you don't play any part in all that, do you? You're clean as the driven snow.
