BTTT!
And you’re damn right, I’m a conservative activist...and I don’t see any problem going and “digging” an article, if it supports the truth. And I don’t see a problem being pinged, or pinging someone, to do the same.
Man, these guys are hateful.
MUHAHAHAHAHA!
Ping - You’re famous!
Personally, I’m not into digg and am not really sure what it is other than it involves the concept of rating a site. I see the “digg it” icon from time to time and ignore it.
But the simple truth is that both sides have access to the internet.
Well Done Patriots! Way to beat the Progressive Fascists at their own game! I love the screams of anguish wafting off this article, it sounds like victory!
The left just won’t realize that the public is largely running away from them and towards the right.
ROFLMFAO!!!!
Alinsky’s “RULES FOR RADICALS”
10. “The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition. It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign.”
Let’s keep KICKING THEIR ASSES — RIGHT OUT OF POWER!!!

WGAS? Liberals should be more worried about the failure of their messiah Obama and his economic disaster than some barely relevant internet site.
pingaling ;) God Bless you lady.
“social news ecosystem”
Are you kidding me?
Hmmm, sounds like a leftist complaining about his inability to do exactly that.
Btw, I'm not on digg, and likely never will be.
The left doesn’t have the attention span to keep the digg hits going. The Doritos keep whispering in their head. “eat me”
I must not be web-savvy. Never heard of Digg.
A bigger bunch of deranged commies you won't meet this side of DU.
agreed. I’ve been here since 2000, I’m a freeper, and I am a heavy internet user.. Never even heard of Digg Patriot thing.
we “Freep” internet polls.. they call that cheating... they steal elections as in Al Franken.... we all know which is the real crime.
Soooo...some, ‘lil snot-nosed lib is upset because Digg isn’t uber-liberal, and conservatives are beating them at their own game? Hey lib, don’t sit there and try telling me you guys don’t ‘game’ the system either. The real issue is that we’ve watched you game the system for years and have learned. Now that we can strike back with equal or greater force, you throwing a tantrum.
More like the consciousness of a million dorm-room Democrats mired in the quicksand of reactionary groupthink.
Actually, the 'growing face' (an odd metaphor) of new media isn't growing much any more. Like a local bar that had an occasionally interesting mix of clientele but is now strictly the hangout of bikers, college kids, or some other homogeneous collective. Digg.com has dugg (wink wink) into a very deep rut in terms of both content and opinion and the opinion, such as it is, is consistently delivered in the most smug, sarcastic and vindictive manner possible. It is clear from content, grammatical style, and attitudes that the bulk of digg's posters are young men frustrated with their own shortcomings in a variety of areas who have been conditioned to mock and shout down ANYTHING that causes them additional contemplation of their inadequacies. Most appear to be students or recent graduates who seem very angry that the world hasn't discovered and rewarded their brilliance and wit.
Like anything that stays the same, all but hard-core users of the site have moved on to newer, better and usually more interesting things.
This is not to say that I discourage resistance to the overriding digg mentality or that I discourage posts or comments that challenge their crabs-in-a-bucket instincts. I will say that all-out victory in the real world is a much better antidote to the occasional thumbs-up vote in the virtual one.
