I try to poke my face out from behind the troll mask every once in a while, but it really hasn't been worth it lately.
There is a general core of regulars, myself included, that are fairly close together in a right libertarian ideology. The only leftists that stick around are the trolls, crusaders, and morons. Occasionally we'll get a reasonable liberal pass on thru but eventually they feel outnumbered by the libertarian core and realize the other liberals on this board do more harm to their arguments than help.
Especially since the flood of refugees from BBMB. SDS should have built a firewall. A yuuuuuuge one. It would have been great. We would have loved it, bigly.
