I’ve been on FR for going on 20 years now, and I did something that I have never done before. Over the years, I’ve had some pretty over the top replies from other FReepers to comments I’ve made; stuff that was out of line. I’ve never reported anything, because honestly I’ve done the same thing to others. FR is a free and open forum, I am a big boy, and that kind of stuff is to be expected. Well, this morning I hit the “Report Abuse” button on Kozak’s post. The reason I gave was “ Statistics without context meant to mislead FR readers”. Now, I don’t think Kozak should be banned from posting his daily dancing on the grave post. I just don’t think he should be allowed to post his own thread about it.

There already was a daily thread where discussion takes place about the veracity of the claims about the CCP virus, which he posted and still can post his statistics. In fact he used to defend his position, but by the time I left the thread, he had quit responding. He would just post his data, without any context, and go do whatever it is he does. Now he’s moved his activities to the main page under News and Activism. He’s not reporting news, just numbers. Numbers that paint a verifiablely false image that does nothing more than spread fear to the uninformed that only read the headlines. He’s not preforming any activism, because he never defends what ever it is he’s trying to promote. All he does is post a what amounts to an online hand grenade and runs away. Sometimes , there are some misguided FReeprs that applaud his little stunt. They are few and far between, and from what I’ve seen, they never defend it either.

Like I said, I think Kozack should be allowed to post his statistics. I don’t think it should be posted as it’s own thread, as its become obvious he’s doing nothing more than spreading provable lies. Most definitely he should not be allowed to post it under “New/Activism” because it’s neither. At best it’s a vanity posted daily for no other reason than so Kozack can rile people up. In that case it’s best posted under Vanities. At worst it is a continued straight out lie, and doesn’t deserve a spot at the top of a thread.

That’s just my 2 cents. I am sure others will disagree, and the mods will do whatever they feel best with my complaint. I just think the FR readers deserve more than lies and vanities posted as News and Activism.

Kozak’s problem is that he cannot, and never could defend his position. He was wrong and remains so. It probably hurt his ego. This is how he makes himself feel better, with a drive by posting.

I reported abuse several times for this post he does daily. No action has been taken. Like, everything else these days, FR has been corrupted by leftist operatives like Kozak, who set out to sow discord and distract us from the elimination of personal liberty taking place worldwide.

How do you feel about those who call the CCP virus the flu?
