While this article is mostly just these idiots blowing smoke, I do have one thing to say on this issue.

I personally have been spending a lot more time on FaceBook recently than on FR. Why? Because FR is generally an echo-chamber for my political philosophy.

Also, the left has figured out that they can influence or demoralize large numbers of conservatives by coming here and trolling in subtle ways--posting defeatism, "concern" threads, "our enemies are kicking our @ss" threads, etc. In my opinion, the mods have been much too lenient about this sort of behavior.

On FaceBook, meanwhile, I can get out there and do the opposite--spread the good word to all and sundry and MAKE CONVERTS among the young folks. That is truly what we need to be doing.

If FR was more FaceBook friendly, that would be a good thing.

Color me puzzled. What would a so called Facebook friendly FR look like? I hope it wouldn’t be cram full of slow, hard to read, busy, and cross-browser unfriendly web code.

Oh, and as good a place as any to go evangelize is townhall.com. It’s chock full of liberal trolls, almost always with almost no censorship. FR experience is invaluable in knocking those fools down again and again.
