It's a bad idea to tell another DUer to "piss off" in a post you don't want hidden. greyl Mar 2016 #6
When I had my first post hidden, years ago, I looked at it and tried to figure out what I did wrong. longship Mar 2016 #7

it's been brutal, but we have stood tall just like she does. They may sling their arrows but we will remain standing.

That's often enough reason to Hide for people who discourage incivility here. I'm not sure why you think the Hide voters must have been bernie bros (other than their being a majority, I suppose).

And yes, Hillary did well.

I had a couple of posts alerted on since then, thankfully some DUers posted that fact. The thing is, when one gets an alert here, one should evaluate oneself. One should ask oneself whether one is helping or hindering our collective political goals here.

Thankfully, I have learned a lesson, that a hide, or an alert, is not a badge of honor here. Too many here have not learned that. And I have not had another alert for years. Because one thing I have learned is what my mother taught me many decades ago. People can disagree without being nasty to one another.

And I would encourage your continual participation. But I would remind you that we are all on the same side here. So, disagree, but do so politely. That is how one doesn't get alerted on, or hidden by juries.

Just some gentle advice. My best to you.
