Which is normal, for someone who just joined a few weeks ago, if they are posting liberal talking points. There's a typical next step, if the behavior continues, commonly referred to as "the zot" which you have probably heard of by now as well.
If you can convince me I am wrong thru facts and information I will certainly reconsider my views.
FR is setup more for conservatives to interact, and organize against traditional liberal talking points presented by the media. Liberals within our ranks, defending or posting those same talking points here, are not generally welcome. Time posting proves the ultimate judge and jury for all.
Oh I’ve heard of it all right. It is somewhat disheartening that censorship or silencing of any “incorrect” thinking is part of of any site. It is further concerning if a site that is supposedly dedicated to conservative discussion to practice the very type of censorship that everyone decries. And make no mistake...it is censorship no matter how you dress up the language.
If people wish to ignore anything that doesn’t fit into their narrative on issues then pray tell how does one reach any kind of consensus on how to organize against anything? I’ll stack my conservative views up against anyone. But I certainly won’t shirk from expressing my opinion on issues that effect us all and what I think on those issues.
I don’t see much organizing here frankly. I do see people attacking each other instead of considering a view and how it might effect the conservative movement. It is one thing to complain about something and another to suggest a course of action. Calling people traitors because they might not hew to someones exact view is totally uncalled for and over the top.
This whole nonsense of liberal verses conservative is why we have some of the problems we have today. Yes I know there are differing approaches in govt. to solving problems. But in the end We the People are the ones who need to insure those problems and issues are solved and we only divide ourselves further by this incessant tribal name calling.
The has been and will continue to be a political tension in this country as long as we let special interests and politicians ferment that tension. I for one will not be taken in by that and will work to the best of my ability to insure this country continues to thrive and provide for its people.
I am an American first...period. Not a sheep to be led.
