You are all correct in your postings. Some FReepers may not want to admit it, or may want to continue to deny the reality, but the fact is that FR is being destroyed before our very eyes. That can be seen very clearly simply by observing the activity, it has decreased to almost nothing.
The daily Rush threads have such small activity, that they are now weekly threads carried over each day. The same for Mark Levin threads. And even at that point, there is no discussion, those threads are attacks on the hosts.
I was away from a computer yesterday and so I thought I would catch up on the Turkey terror attack by coming to FR. There was only 2 or 3 threads and they all had very few responses. It was just another indicator of how insignificant FR has become to many. It used to be the “go to” place for learning more about such major events.
Heck, even the Friday silliness thread is shrinking. Does the “word of the day” thread even exist anymore?
Yes, we are actually witnessing the destruction of FR before our very eyes. It is rather sad, but I suppose change is always happening.
The day many were banned and I was threatened to be banned for not being 100% behind Donald Trump, was the day I knew FR had problems. It was simply put, that if you were not a 100% genuine Trump supporter and if you didn’t comply you were not welcome and I haven’t felt welcome since and probably never will again. FR became a sham to me because FR was built on FREEDOM, conservatism and constitutional rights, then suddenly switches gears and bans people from these very freedoms they espouse as their platform. That said, I don’t run away and I won’t be chased away. Many of us on FR had legitimate concerns about DTs caustic remarks about women, mocking a handicapped person, deriding John McCain for his POW service, the language, the name calling of other candidates, the unnecessary embarrassing comment about Carly Fiorina’s face, we will SADLY, have our day, it is coming like a freight train. I supported a specific candidate that I liked, still like and shamefully on my part,I was ashamed to admit. I will vote for DT, no doubt, but he is not the candidate for the daunting task ahead that is becoming more evident with every Clinton campaign ad I see.
The Freepathons go on forever now too, and just look at how the Alexa rankings have cratered:
