Sounds like you aren't very familiar with Freepers. If you are serious about being a Freeper I would sugest mostly laying a little lower while you pick up the lay of the land. if you like what you see, stick around. If not, not.
Good advice!
Hippydippy obviously doesn't realize that
a) It's unlikely that anyone here would rush to retort "maybe we aren't any better," and
b) Many Freepers might actually argue that our Cold War attitudes back then were quite honorable and justified, and that there might be good reason today to resume an attitude of distrust vis-à-vis the Russians.
