Are you curious why O'Reilly has gotten so mad at us? Here's the reason:
He can't figure out how to shut us up.
We keep posting excerpts from his past mistakes, like his trial for sexual harassment, his stupid comments, his mistakes. Since YouTube, people can see him make a fool of himself over and over.
And Bill takes himself so seriously, he can't stand laughter.
Bill is, of course, an expert hater, and resents competition. We aren't very good at it, because we have a different purpose -- to elect Democrats -- and when people get too far off the beam, we have a way to erase their comments from view.
We have ideas here that Bill could never have on his site: Trusted Users and "recommend" buttons.
Trusted Users are people who keep coming back AND getting recommends from the little buttons. The site software keeps track of whether you post things that other people like, AND it keeps track of whether other trusted users (TU's) have clicked their little "Troll" buttons to say they didn't like you. TU's are the only ones who have troll buttons.
Bill could never let the actual users of the site exercise any authority. You may have noticed that Bill is a serious control freak. He cuts off peoples' microphones, talks over them, yells, threatens to have them hauled out of the studio (I saw that show, the one with the kid).
We do control what appears here, but much more in accord with the idea of being open-minded about it. Look at the FAQ (frequently asked questions) and learn about the site, and then tell me whether you think we are a hate site.
This site is very tolerant. They even let me post, and become a TU, which I lose on occasion, but can get back.
So hang around, register, and after one day, you can post. After one week, you can write a diary. If it has something to do with electing Democrats, you might be recognized as a great writer. I'm still working on that. Ciao!
UPDATE: This is another neat thing you can do: you can go back and edit your diary, like this. I just wanted to tell all you new registered O'Reillioids -- register immediately! so you can post at a reasonable hour that I will write a similar diary to this one tomorrow (a little later in the day so you can watch Bill) and we can talk back and forth. I'll call it recruiting new members for electing Democratic candidates, so it stays in the purpose parameters.
Don't you love the big words you learn here?! We don't engage much in floccinaucinihilipilification, though...pity though.
And you being antidisestablismentarians and all, might have some trouble with our doomster sociologists and futurists....
