Whether "liberal" or "conservative" is in the board title, it's an indication (IMHO) that they want to retreat into a bubble. Sometimes they can get very hostile to an outsider (I experienced that on TMF with both Conservative Fools and Christian Fools. - 1pg

I feel quite the opposite. I was a member of a couple of almost pure conservative boards, and frankly they became quite boring. An exclusive stream of examples of liberal malfeasance and funny memes poking at liberals gets old pretty damn fast. To me anyway.
I prefer to be the guy in the minority on a board such as this. It has some life and some fire to it, an energy not present in the monolithic conservative boards. I enjoy the displays of TDS and also enjoy the deeper discussions of policy and the problems facing of the day. And quite honestly being fire-hosed with the liberal perspective here has made me more critical of the news I get from other sources such as the one whose name shall not be spoken.
And really, if the likes of me, Dope, LM, boater, <sorry I am surely leaving out some conservatives, but really there are not that many of us here>, were to suddenly disappear, would you miss us or would you celebrate having finally achieved a pure <but possibly boring> liberal only echo chamber?
