Do freeptards talk about us as much as we talk about them?
Or are we just more curious than they are?

3. Actually, its totally different than here.
Here, we say "Look at this statement, its false, here is proof, etc."

There, they say "Look at this guy, what a dork! Haha! Bush rules, you lost!"
i.e. they have no way to rebut the facts, so they ad hominem the posters.

I don't think I've ever seen a Freeper (or other site poster) ever refute anything posted on DU.

6. More.
They are obsessed with us. They dream about us, and hang on our every word and deed.

8. They're utterly OBSESSED with us.
Edited on Sat Feb-04-06 09:12 PM by Redstone
You'll note that there is NO section of DU that is devoted to people who go over to those rightwing websites, then report about what they're doing, in minute, obsessive detail.

However, there are an AWFUL lot of those various freep-type websites (actually, most of them) that DO have a section just for people to "report" on what we're doing here.

To quote from one of my prior posts, explaining what the average freeper is like:

They're kind of the Internet version of the neighborhood loser who lives in his momma's basement at 34 years old, never bathes, doesn't have a job, and spends all of his time wanking to porn and bitching about how everyone else has it so much better than him.

On summer evenings, he can be found hiding in a hedge, watching the other neighbors getting together for a BBQ, having fun and laughing together and enjoying life. He squats there in the hedge and mumbles all kinds of "sour grapes" insults about the neighbors to himself, but he can't help watching them anyway, because he's utterly eaten up with envy...though he'll deny it to the death.

That's what freepers are, and why so many of them read everything we say here, and try to crash the party as well.

10. Absolutely, in fact...
...they are utterly obsessed. Go look around their major hangouts, they are obsessed.

11. They talk more shit about us then we do about them.
Although based on laws of average, the amount of shit spewed by both sides of the spectrum probably evens out.

13. they are fixated about DU



funny, if i want to make them look bad I just cut and paste their writing word
for word ...... but why bother "they" are just the little maggots that come from blow flies that
land on dead animals.

Rove, PNAC, the media manipulators, Rummy, Bolton, Rice, the energy companies,
ees & diebold, blackwell, and the war profiteers are the ones to go after.

Did you see their big "pro war" national meet up? 35 people LOL
We had 200 people who supported Cindy show up in just one of 20
protests around central Ohio. They are a joke.
