Are you making your posts count?
I hate to tell anyone how to live their lives, but there are some very simple ways to help the cause.

For example, do you have a chatboard signature? If not, get one! It could be a slogan, a reminder that the media are corrupt, or a link to an activist website.

When posting articles from the corporate media, include a reminder that they're corrupt. I almost never post anything from the Seattle Times, Seattle Post-Intelligencer or Seattle Weekly without letting visitors know what scumbags they are.

Take a swing at Microsoft every now and then. Even many liberals praise that derelict computer virus factory, which supports Republicans even more than it does corrupt Democrats.

Make every post count!

1. Big City print media.
I've taken numerous shots at the Philadelphia Inquirer. Want to guess who's now jumping on the now suddenly transparent facade of Chimpministration? What was obvious to all years ago is now a revelation to the Inquirer. Hilarious..

2. Locking--GD rules
1. If you start a thread in the General Discussion forum, you must present your opinion in a manner that is not inflammatory, which respects differences in opinion, and which is likely to lead to respectful discussion rather than flaming. Some examples of things which should generally be avoided are: unnecessarily hot rhetoric, nicknames for prominent Democrats or their supporters, broad-brush statements about groups of people, single-sentence "drive-by" thread topics, etc.

2. The subject line of a discussion thread must accurately reflect the actual content of the message.
