re: #32 Gus

It’s also a spectacularly unproductive and useless waste of time. Why on earth wouldn’t one spend that energy doing, oh, I don’t know, documentation of the nastiness and media malfeasance out there now? One of the main reasons I’m here is because LGF covers things the corporate media completely ignores. I really couldn’t care less what this site was like “back then”, long before I even read it.

And if you really want to “learn from the past,” seems it would make a lot more sense to chart the evolution of the people here who used to be “wingnuts” and no longer are - that could help you figure out what made them vulnerable to wingnuttery in the first place, and how you might get others to break away from that destructive thinking.

What’s going on with this Page is akin to going up to a former alcoholic and saying, “Neener, neener, you used to drink! You used to drink! Look at all these old pictures I have of you when you were all drunk and stuff! Derp.”
