Ok, listen up: We know you're out there. We know you sneak around reading DU and we know that from time to time you sign up under a disguise so you can spread trouble. I've been reading some posts lately where the writers have expressed that Freepers (Right-Wing loud mouths) are sneaking into the site where they don't belong.
This excerpt is taken directly from the DU Terms of Service:
Don't be a wingnut (right-wing or extreme-fringe).
Democratic Underground is an online community for politically liberal people who understand the importance of working within the system to elect more Democrats and fewer Republicans to all levels of political office. Teabaggers, Neo-cons, Dittoheads, Paulites, Freepers, Birthers, and right-wingers in general are not welcome here. Neither are certain extreme-fringe left-wingers, including advocates of violent political/social change, hard-line communists, terrorist-apologists, America-haters, kooks, crackpots, LaRouchies, and the like.
If any of these things apply to you then you're violating DU's Terms of Service. Right Wings are not welcome here. So good bye.

(475 posts)I get the sentiment, but it's not like it's illegal for them to be here. They can easily just ignore that.

(397 posts)I would think if that violates the Terms of Service they could be removed as with any other TOS violation but it's up to the people running the site.
Further more I accomplished everything I set out to accomplish when I wrote the article-to express my opinion to them that they are not welcome here. Which interest the article served quite well.
I hope this clears that up for you.

I doubt a fraction of them have ever served in the military despite almost all of them claiming they have.
Fucking pussys that hide behind a computer screen.
