I would ask Skinner in the ATA forum or post a new OP in the help forum.

There was talk of moving to Zazzle but I don't know where we sell stuff, if we still sell stuff at all.

I think all of the few places left, places where people are free to post whatever they wish- are 'infested' with people who do not have a 'Democratic' agenda.

I don't know what the answer would be, I do know its not silence vs 'them'. That's what they want, people to give up, quit, walk away, get burned out. Be overwhelmed by all the 'paid professional media companies propaganda BS' and not vote.

Everybody needs and should take a break. This is an 'online community' , it can be ignored and shut-off very easy.

It's up to the admin., a suggestion would be to exclude blogger and news rewriter's from breaking news forum. That forum should be (IMO) original source reports only & include the entire source story.
