This has been my safe place since 2006.
I check this place multiple times per day, to remind me that not everyone is a conservative. I'm a blue dot in a red state, Texas.

When I found DU in April, 2006, it was like finding home for me. I never looked back.

Welcome, Sampan!

I have been a member since the Bush days and I don't know what I would have done without DU. You won't agree with everything that is said here, but all in all, it is a safe haven for Democrats/Liberals/Progressives. Trolls are rooted out pretty quickly.

I laugh every single day at DU'ers who keep us all sane with cartoon gatherings and lacerating take-downs of what passes for our government these days.

This board gave me relief from the insanity and bots on other boards.

They have infiltrated most.

I feel quite welcome here because this board is filled with very brilliant people, AKA, Democrats!:
