It was insane. They drove people away from RedState and killed traffic. You can have a mix of opinions, but don't treat your readers as the enemy. That is what some of the mods were doing at RedState. You have plenty of places to go for TrumpHate. Evi L.

The world doesn't need another pro-Trump blog. As far as I'm concerned they're OrangeState now and I'm not going back-- and I was there since the beginning, 2004. They're dead to me now.Finrodnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587842796867542781.post-52053824044732108172018-04-28T11:09:38.743-05:002018-04-28T11:09:38.743-05:00I read that crew some ca. 2004 when they were a fa...I read that crew some ca. 2004 when they were a fairly novel presence. Most do not have a particularly distinct voice. Allahpundit does, after a fashion, but it's stereotyped and tiresome. He gets responses, mostly along the lines of 'sigh, wake us when one of your prognostications actually comes to pass".

I did not take him too seriously, but I did enjoy making fun of him after he went full BSC and terminal AH. <br /><br />A site like RS needs debate, to drive traffic. I was no troll (I was very respectful that it was not a MAGA site). I was respectful to all and did not go out of my way to be provocative. But merely criticizing Evan McMullin was too much for them. Petty tyrant hall monitors. So they drove people away and definitely drove down traffic. Very predictable. Very Sad. Evi L.

The way he handled your banning was worthy of a 4th grade bully hogging the slide. He got what he deserved. I doubt he'll find another gig. Resurgent won't be able to keep him long, and that lash up will probably die before long as well.Quartermasternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587842796867542781.post-24458059433267291222018-04-27T17:54:24.031-05:002018-04-27T17:54:24.031-05:00I am a big fan of Allahpundit.

What I did not like about some of the mods at RedState is they were not about debate, they were about bullying. A site that balances those critical or skeptical of Trump is fine, provided they are at least fair to those who disagree and somewhat objective. Evi L.
