No.
Nothing is stopping you from posting it right here.
Yep. Not worth clicking on a link when its only purpose is to up the blog pimp's hit count.
Thanks. Yes, no need to excerpt.
It’s actually quite long with lots of embedded reference links, images and video.
I got no problem following the link. Other than a donate button; no adverts.
A perfectly good reason to let blogs excerpt:
Per the article itself, talking about Freerepublic:
“This organization is also considered a “thorn in the side” of the liberal mainstream media, and is only permitted to exist as long as they can direct traffic to liberal-friendly mainstream media outlets. To this end, there are paid trolls that frequent the site in shifts.
The objective of the FR trolls is to limit conservative dialog to the site; box it in. Make it limited so that there isn’t any traceable “spill over” onto the Internet.
This is so that the Google algorithms do not notice traffic to other smaller conservative websites. It serves to keep small conservative bloggers, websites, and associated traffic way… way down in the search hierarchy. Instead of a Conservative post being on the top three pages of a Google Search, they can end up on page 50 to 60 in a given search.”
So excerpting blogs so that they get traffic hits helps fight big-tech censorship of conservative thought. You, on the other hand, help Big Brother kill us off every time you nag a poster about their content.
