re: #259 bratwurst

Can we also dispense with the notion that nobody is allowed to criticize a website based on the users of that site? This site is somehow able to moderate comments and jettison users who are nasty trolls and/or repeat offenders. Are you really going to say that the poor helpless NRO doesn’t have the resources to do the same?

They’ve been kicking out many of the trolls. But its worth noting that LGF hasn’t had a troll swarm in a while, whereas NRO has been suffering them repeatedly ever since National Review came out against Donald Trump. Most of the current trolls aren’t regular NRO readers, they show up after hate sites link to NRO articles are targets for troll attacks. The trolls then move in to fling poo. It’s pretty difficult to deal with, unless you are willing to set up the kind of anti-troll defenses that Charles has erected. And thus take a great deal of time and effort.
