I think what needs to be done is to work to return FR to what it was back when it was a serious research and activism site.

There was a time when, if someone made a claim, others demanded proof of it. That’s how Dan Rather got exposed for the fraud he is, and how many of the fake “Vietnam Vets” were exposed as having never even been in the military, let alone Vietnam. If you ask for sources, if you then research the sources, and the claim turns out to be false, you can always hit them with the truth and the documentation that goes with it.

But the current practice of “You’re guy’s a twit” “Is not” “Is so” “Is not either” “Is so and you’re a jerk” “Yeah, and you’re a liar and a troll and a &*$#@!!” isn’t really looking all that adult—or conservative.

Unfortunately, this Forum is not even a shred of it's former self. Ever since the great Giuliani Purge, the tone became one of stark, single minded rhetoric. Anyone who had a different opinion than the status quot, were maliciously singled out.

Sorry for the realistic assessment, but it has become all too obvious and cannot be easily reversed.
