Are people who call people Freepers really just Freepers?

and am I a freeper just for thinking that thought?

I think the spirit of freeping is doing something blindly even though you know it's wrong.

Or perhaps cheating for fairness? Fighting for peace?

What will freeping go into the dictionary as? Will it have multiple meanings?

It's a nice substitute for "fuck", as in "those freeping freepers"...

1. I think people who ask about freepers and post about freepers

and respond to posts about freepers and click on posts about freepers really are just freepers. In fact, I think it is due to crass culture and poor role models that everything in life is just Freeper culture.

Any questions? Ya freeper?

2. Actually ....

... I have an advanced degree in English and I predict that "freep," derived from Freerepublic.com, actually will become a word accepted in the standard lexical authorities: Freep, v, to intentionally skew or bias a survey of public opinion.

Hmmmmm. Two, maybe three years for the Webster's Collegiate, maybe five for the Oxford and I CAN'T WAIT for the screaming over there.

6. Don't freep.

Yell from the mountains, scream from the dells. Wear a sandwitch board on 57th saying the end is nigh and make sure all your friends, relations, and like-minded compatriots post to the poll. But for heavens sake...Don't freep. The ends never justify the means, that's one of the things that separate DU'ers from the free republic crowd... That and morality. And fashion sense. Have a banana?
