What the heck does it take to get kicked off FR?
Edited on Tue May-09-06 07:05 PM by BleedingHeartPatriot
I have a membership on FR, originally for the express purpose of posting nonsequitors, just to to shake things up a bit.

I think I've posted three things. It's really not that much fun.

With the subterfuge getting old, I decided to post something that would fire up the rank and file against me allowing an honorable end my membership.

So,when I was on a DU thread with a post saying, "someone should post this link at FR", I popped over there, posted the link, came back immediately to DU and posted, "looks like someone just did."

I thought just posting the link would have been enough to lose my FR privileges. In the not-so-old days, any post even vaguely mentioning anything that wasn't in rapturous and blind agreement with gwb was out of there in minutes.

A strange thing happened. My post stayed and stayed and it's probably still there. And, it got a couple of snarly, "it sucks to be us" responses, without a single complaint for posting it in the first place.

I'm really liking the tilt of our universe, right now! :) MKJ

Ohhhhh, that's nothing! The pain has just begun for America, and everyone will be blaming you Freepers. You should never have called a PATRIOT a traitor.... Karma. Enjoy...

7. Well, you must remember that I'm operating from a DU point of view.
Edited on Tue May-09-06 07:17 PM by BleedingHeartPatriot
The intrepid DU'ers here catch "cross posters" real time.

Especially if the disruptor posts something that we, DU'ers, peg as a strategy of the opposing camp.

I was too damn subtle! MKJ

10. It took me one post.
I wrote a Colbertesque piece on "why I support Bush," posted it & lasted about 4 minutes.

18. Here's some prize irony from that RAT site:
Edited on Tue May-09-06 07:25 PM by Jackpine Radical
All the Democrats say we made a mountain out of a molehill. I say that, evidently, was Monica's job..... we're just telling it like it is. Bill Clinton's impeachment, and the wrong it addressed, was about much more than a blow job, an adulterous act--and a lie about it. What he did wrong was so much more than that.

All people in positions of official authority have a duty to the people that hired them--and they have a duty to those over which they have authority. Not only must they lead responsibly, but part of their job is providing an example--one that others may look up to with confidence and trust. In this day and age of political correctness, it has become even more codified. It is called a fiduciary responsibility--and heads of companies breaking its tenets can put their jobs at serious risk.

Wow, Bush & Co. build their ascent to power & their whole operation on a platform of lies, but it's still "Blowjob! Blowjob! Blue Dress! Clonton Lied!" Fascinating to watch the pathology in operation.

19. Yuck. No thanks.
Hardly comes as much of a surprise that someone who crows about loving GWB (hooraw?) doesn't think highly of this site.

(Note: I didn't say that she doesn't think much of us. She obviously does--she devotes a lot of time and energy to us on her mewling, bilious site.)

6. You can't shake 'em by posting non-sequiturs.
You have to post truth.

11. I posted truth, but indirectly with a link to a site that would drive them
crazy, if they linked.

Scherezade, I'm not. :hi:

I got kicked off by making one homophobic post trying to rile them up.
It was bizarre because it wasn't as bad as most of the homophobic shit they spew.

16. They might have sussed you out because you didn't speak in their code.
Edited on Tue May-09-06 07:22 PM by Dunvegan
You can be any kind of hateful...as long as it is written in Fweepie "wink-wink" code.

Like "New York Liberal" for Jewish, etc.

Figures. Must have been the literacy and typing skills.

17. HAHAHA, well, that would work. I was hoping I could have a couple of
posts arguing my point of view before banishment. (like we do here, since argument doesn't necessarly mean you're a disruptor).

27. Try this: "I'm a Afro-Latina Lesbian Log Cabin Republican...
Edited on Tue May-09-06 09:27 PM by Dunvegan
...as far as my ideology goes, and an illegal Mexican immigrant.

"I had problems the other day because La Migra is snooping around my workplace where I humbly serve as a maid for the tax-free wealthy at a four-star hotel for under minimum wage and no benefits.

"I pay taxes happily to the government to press the War on Terror and export democracy to Iraq, and do not vote against Republicans because I cannot vote.

"I'm afraid they'll find and keep my guns if they deport me, thus violating rights assured in the Second Amendment...anyone have any advice?"


===OR====

Try, "I'm an illegal Chinese citizen working in a US clothing factory sweatshop. Since we've been raided twice, I'm afraid they'll deport me back to mainland China, and the Godless Communist government there will force me to have an abortion since I already have one child, and it seems I'm pregnant with twins.

"I'm a devoted member of Falun Gong, and can do housework and teach Cantonese to home-schooled children.

"Could anyone at FR put me up immediately to prevent the murder of my 5 week old fetuses?"

35. Actually, one of my earlier posts asked about about gwb's 2nd amendment
Edited on Tue May-09-06 09:37 PM by BleedingHeartPatriot
history.

If anyone had come to his defense as the "Right To Bear Arms" leader, I was ready with the NRA's vigorous complaint about gun confiscation in NOLA, post Katrina.

Turns out, a lot of Freeps aren't happy about that either.

gwb is an albatross around their necks. It's almost, but not completely, a sad thing. :violin: MKJ
