Sounds suspect...

To me. Speaking as someone who was Staff at Alice and knows a lot about how the board has been operated over the years, that's never been my experience. I was on the right when I was a Staff Member and no one ever gave me any crap over my political leanings (nor does anyone give me any crap now that I'm a leftist). Other right wingers have been in similar positions I'm sure since plenty of GL lean to the right. I don't know who told you that, but maybe they need to believe that in order to explain why they got booted for other reasons. People across the political spectrum have been able to flourish on girl love boards so I don't buy that at all.
