I probably shouldn’t be laughing at this, but I just can’t help it:

Ars Technica: Trolls bring down the launch of conservative social network “Reaganbook”

Here, I ran across a comment from ‘mattand’ (I wonder, seeing as that doesn’t seem to be a common handle, if that’s our ‘mattand’) that had me rolling:

They mention relaunching after they learn how to make it “more secure”. My question is how do you secure a public site from people who want to post content (for humor or any other reason) that you don’t want?

The real question is how do you secure a public site when the vast majority of computer people support your opponent?

Seriously, I live in one of the reddest states in the country, and out of every single sysadmin and programmer I know in the area, only one isn’t a Democrat. (She’s an independent.)

Yeah, I know what you mean. I was at a Sooper Sekrit Liberal Dem Sysadmin meeting where they re-affirmed their vow to destroy all conservative internet sites ever. Because that’s what they do.

We then beat a piata shaped like Reagan until welfare checks fell out.
