Just about every forum EXCEPT FR is one in which conservatives fight with others. Many FReepers spend much time on these sites.
Free Republic is different in that we are here among FRiends and don't need to be convinced to become a battlefield like every other site out there.
Perhaps you'd be happy at a different battlefield.
I have high doubts that Mono there is a conservative.
Especially since they keep saying that liberals need a voice.
Liberals have NPR, CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CBS, most newspapers...
They have all the voice they need.
They even had Err Amerika to ‘counter’ conservative talk radio.
What more does Mono want?
“Free Republic is a pro-life, pro-family, pro-liberty constitutional conservative activist web site. Those who cannot live with that should simply stay away!! (saves wear and tear on my zot button - bitterly clinging redneck, Jim)”
It just so happens that I’m a pro-life, pro-family, pro-liberty constitutional conservative activist...
Is this why I spend so much time lurking?
:0)
Because I heard all their crap and I can't think of a single one.
I consider FR to be a Conservative Think-Tank which builds ideas upon themselves.
100% access to all conservative platforms I would guess. More chance at disruption and discord. I also guess that he won't be very successful here.
I also wonder if he is part of an early attack, there may be more like him coming? English may be a second language, outsourcing astroturf?
You are still pro-gun aren’t you?
Pretty likely on all counts, actually.
One thing I’ve noticed: FReepers are usually pretty cognizant of trolls and will tolerate them only so long as they remain amusing.
With some trolls, they become amusing only after they get the zot.
I’d say we’re in for another troll flood.
We’re actually overdue.
Agreed. And Mr. JimRob's instincts have been engaged the past couple days, too, and there's a whole lot o' fryin goin on.
Things have been slow (and kinda boring) for awhile. It's likely to pick up and stay busy for quite awhile now.
Amen!
I’ll catch back up with this later.
Probably after crawling in under alot of troll smoke.
Just did a quick troll count.
Holy smokes.
As per our unalienable right, armed to the teeth and fully invested in lead. Much more bang per the buck than gold.
“”Nor are our ideas worth anything if they cannot withstand endless challenge from every direction.”
Your point of view is garbage. How’s that for debate? Is that what you think is useful?”
If the forum owner was interested in a debate forum such accusations could be eliminated or ignored. Again its up to him not me to decide what he wants with HIS forum.
My remark was merely to state what I felt was a self-evident fact about what could be gained by having a forum in which liberal spamers can be effectively and demonstratively dealt with by other conservatives.(Which we have a lot of, as to show each other how to deal with such things).
“This site is CLEARLY dedicated to CONSERVATIVES talking amongst themselves in an attempt to further the CONSERVATIVE agenda.”
Yes your right it was, I simply suggested to the forum owner that goal might perhaps better be accomplished by driving the liberals out with reason and banning only the spammers.
It is, in my opinion at least, of great utility to constantly have my opinions and positions tested by the worse our enemy can come up with to throw at em.
” Endlessly debating marxists/communists/socialists/anarchists/American liberals/democrats/RINOs etc... simply wastes time and annoys us. “
You and the forum administrator may be right on this, In any-even it really doesn’t matter, as i was merely making a suggestion, it is His not my or your call.
I would agree it is possible if we end up having the exact same debate over and over again that it would get a bit redundant and annoying, but its also helpful in helping people to improve upon their rebuttal.
In any case I simply wanted to add my 2 cents, i thank you and the forum owner for taking the time to both reading and judge it.
There is nothing to be gained by letting liberals/socialists have a voice.
Didn’t you learn that from the 1930’s and 1940’s?
Did you learn nothing from that at all?
You found it!
Great heading! Hopefully libs and RINOs will get the message!
It sure doesn't. The guy on This Thread (posts 77 & 79) is a good example...lol. The ozone was strong with that one!
