OTOH, our history is different in that we have done numerous Freeps as Florida was such a key state in the last election.
We do take these Freeps as opportunities to gather socially afterwards and we did that quite a bit.
I liken a Freeper Chapter to the Continental Army. Washington never had more than 20,000 troops at any one time. They came and went with the planting & harvesting seasons. Freepers come and go with the political seasons.
This ebb & flow I have come to accept. It probably is how this just works out.
