All I’ve done is stand up in defense of some of my Freeper friends who I feel have been treated shoddily here in the last week.
***Maybe if you looked at some of the rudy threads prior to last week you would see how all of this came about. Looking at one without the other is putting on blinders. JimRob is making this place more hospitable to social conservatives, which was the original intent when he started this forum. Who goes onto a socon forum and denigrates socons, and why? And when the owner of the forum decides to get rid of such agitators, that’s his prerogative. I agree with it. There are still rudy supporters here on FR, so this isn’t about supporting rudy.
JimRob is making this place more hospitable to social conservatives That's fine. I don't, however, recall him calling in the Taliban to cleanse the place of everyone not wearing the burka or the beard. In 15062 we have a messianic ayatollah claiming that he and his band of snarling yahoos are speaking for God as they crash through the place threatening 8- and 9-year Freepers with bannings and bug zappers. They say a fanatic is a man who does what God would do if God had all the facts. When little ayatollahs start thinking they speak for God, it's time to rein them in. |
