Last night, out of sheer curiosity, I ventured over to the Free Republic website just for the heck of it. I think my head and heart are still hurting!!! Ignorance and overall hatred does not begin to describe it!
Grant it, sometimes the snark here can tend to get pretty heavy at times, but by and large, knowledge can be had most times by many posters, be it by offering a different perspective, links to charts or videos or what have you.
But I tell ya - it is quite the cesspool over there. Not much intellectual discussion that I found AT ALL. Mostly just hatred piled upon hatred and that's pretty much the extent of it.
About the Occupy movement and the current adverse weather conditions in some areas, one poster even alluded to actually using one of the protestors (gosh...I am having a hard time even repeating this..) to use one of the bodies as kindling fuel - and that would keep the fire going for another half-hour.
I didn't really think that evil really existed until last night - but it almost embarrasses me as a human being to witness such pure, unadulterated hatred.
Which, in the end, I think speaks directly more about themselves than any thing else, only they don't have the courage to peel back the layers and realize that their sense of hatred is really more about a reflection of themselves and their own demons that they don't want to own and/or deal with because its much easier just to project all their mess onto someone else and find others willingly available to not only agree, but even justify those skewed means in a truly warped out sense of "logic".
