A thread on FR that shows a lot about the sort of fascists they are...

1. Man, I cannot stand the way that FR is set up!

Besides being morans, their forum sucks the big one.

2. Thank you! I'm no web master but damn their site SUCKS!

It's hard as hell to navigate and very poorly organized. The disparity in quality between them and DU is glaring. No wonder they're a bunch of haters....

4. yes that is what 72,000 a quarter

buys you!... Plus Jim's car payments and such. That new handicapped van he bought himself, and road trip he takes so he can embarrass himself when only 15 people show up at Cindy's camp.

It has to sucks for freepers to realize that is what 288,000 a year buys them. A hate rag, with dull conversation, brain washing tactics are employed. You aren't even allowed to have a differing opinion without being tomb-stoned. Rather Nazi isn't it?

3. OK. I started reading this thread and its freepy little link

about 7 a.m. No coffee. A cigarette slowly yellowing my left index and middle fingers.

Now, having read both the Wikipedia entry and the freepalations about it, I feel like I've just mistaken the liquid LSD for Visine. Who in the hell are these cretins? I swear it's like something from the Onion, or Betty Bowers. These "people" can't possibly be real. Jesus! Where's Leonard Nimoy when you're up to your neck in freepod-people?

And yeah, the message board structure has all the flash and dash of a '52 Edsel.

Is it too early for Dickel?

5. They have scrubbed this entry cleaner than locusts in a wheatfield.

There used to be all manner of actually balanced criticism of FR here.

The current efforts are totally in violation of wikipedia rules.

6. Um, Ben ... do you not see the irony here?

Isn't this similar to what you suggested DUers do?

[Taxloss]

7. I revise my opinion. This is incitement to vandalism.

"A few words of advice:

Be persistent.

Be patient.

Be aware that most of the Wikipedia nazis with time on their hands are lunatic liberals masquerading as reasonable people.

If you can't reason with them, you can make it very difficult for them to propogandize by going after their other articles and contributions.

If you have access to more than one terminal, spread things around a bit since the IP address is recorded and leaves a trail for them to go after your articles in like manner.

However, since most of us have a life beyond posting and, therefore, have fewer articles and modifications to trace, they can eventually be worn down since they have far more to lose in their work than we do in ours."

Some people just don't Get It.

8. Exactly the difference.

Thanks for seeing that.

[Taxloss]

14. Well, it wasn't hard to tell the difference.

I hope Wiki's "immune system" is strong enough to deal with this. And I must admit that I consider myself a "white blood cell" :D

[benburch]

9. Several editors have requested a page lock now til the freeps get tired.

But I expect their vandalism elsewhere will go on unabated.

[stevietheman]

10. Get a load of this...

"They'd have been a lot more accurate to state that freepers have things they like: including a preference for: the United States, its constitution, defense, the rule of law, lower taxes, smaller government, and freedom."

This from a group that supports a President who is actually dangerous to the republic, and actively trying to reduce our freedoms. And government has never been more bloated. They must all be on crack.

They are the ones who hate America. They need to be honest about that.

[benburch]

11. I couldn't agree more!

From an NPOV, of course!

[Walt Starr]

12. OT: Has anybody else every noticed their "Freepathons" seem to drag on

endlessly?

I mean, when is RimJob not dunning Freepers for money?

Didn't this thing start like two weeks ago?

[benburch]

13. Three weeks ago, I think. nt
