3 months is pretty good for an amateur saboteur though. The problem with the freeps is that it is difficult to post anything even slightly sensible. One of the simplest and funniest things to do is to make them look really foolish in order to make them realize their ignorance. When posted at appropriate times, saying "I think we should just nuke all them A'rabs and let God sort 'em out later" always brings a resounding round of appreciative comment. Sometimes making statements that make no logical sense at all is great for a laugh, especially when you get positive responses to your lunacy. Spouting judgmental pseudo-Christian racist or homophobic epithets is a sure fire winner, and is full on hilarious when you get a response where someone actually thinks they understand. Sometimes I wonder if freepers actually do understand this total nonsense in some type of mentally disordered way, which is particularly frightening.
Here is one of my favorites: "The idea of freedom of religion is to be free to choose your beliefs, our nation has honored that but the left is looking to change it by instilling one belief on us all. Accept it, endorse it, or you are the enemy whom they will vilify with all they can. They are the missionaries they have ridiculed in christian history, they preach a religion, they preach a belief, and they will go to extradorinary lengths to convert the people of our country." This is a recent actual post. Notice that it is very poorly written, slightly misspelled, (this is critical to success) makes no sense, and has no basis in logic or reality. It often helps to write as if you are fundamentally illiterate and have a mid-level mental disorder categorized as schizophrenia compounded with poor potty training and a strict pseudo-Christian fundamentalist background, or maybe an OC neurotic disorder, as very few freepers have any degree of real intelligence, literacy, or cognition of reality.
The key is, try not to say anything that smacks of logic or intelligence. You have to remember that you are communicating with the mid to lower echelon of the dittohead group. Listening to the callers on the Rush Limbaugh program is an excellent way to get a handle on the disorganized state of the freeper mind, and you can get really great ideas for posting when Otis calls in from Jonestown Mississippi.
Sometimes freeperville is so off the wall it looks to me like half of the posters there are DUers or Green Party operatives.
Remember that it is all just in good fun and to be very subtle when planting the seeds of political discord. It is difficult to get them to think to deeply without giving yourself away -- also, thinking may be deeply disturbing to a freep and may cause a nervous breakdown if the conscience is affected. Don't try to get too controversial politically, until you are ready to expose yourself as a plant. Then tell them you are a black lesbian liberal communist muslim from Massachusetts and kiss them goodnight.
