That'll e allenging.

You think DU is slow now? Just wait until Bernie can't be bashed any more. Half the threads here were bashing Bernie and his supporters.

I haven't seen those posts in months

But I can only take so much. I feel bad for the lurkers. No wonder the numbers of posts has dropped by so very much. It's not a pretty site.

I imagine that many of them are no longer here, but there it is.

I don't easily tolerate the inconveniencing of electrons with their reprehensible bullshit. I tried once back in March, and oh wow what a mistake that was.

sometimes I question my reason to be here due to my ignore list

A lot of the most prolific posters are going to be very bored with nothing to aim their shit at.

I rarely ever alert, but come June 16? Fired up!

... that DU consisted of 85% BS supporters, it seems rather ridiculous to say that "half the threads here were bashing Bernie and his supporters". In fact, that notion is extremely ridiculous.

Perhaps it's BernieMath that leads you to believe that anywhere near "half the threads here" were posted by 15% of the active membership - even less if you consider how many HRCers were relegated to time-outs due to 85% of the jury pool being BS supporters.

I have noted two things about the Bernie supporters here on DU: they cling to "facts" not in evidence, and they cry "persecution" when things don't go their way.

But then you're also someone who, last we spoke, was pretending that a WillPitt thread from 2014 was still heading hte "Greatest" page.

... what you're talking about.

You can of course support the premise that 15% of the board outposted the other 85%, yes? Or is the allegation simply faith-based thinking?

seems that same % or higher of Hillary supporting DUers are either either MIRT or Forum Hosts or both - could be seen as illustrating how a tiny minority can hold sway over a majority

... how many HRCers were on MIRT or acted as hosts.

What I DO know is that a site comprised of 85% BS supporters meant that 85% of the jury pool were BSers - and if you want to try and convince me that this fact alone had no impact on whose posts got "hidden" and whose posts were voted as a "leave", you might want to tell me about this bridge in Brooklyn that could be up for sale.

you may not have looked, and as far who's posts are hidden I'd say it's pretty distributed moreover folks should check the numbers of Hillary posters with <3 months vs Bernie supporters of the same duration

but not to worry 48 hours and the site will be Hillary only

That isn't the intention of the new rules and you know it.

not to mention Bernie has not yet conceded meaning he can be considered as opposing Hillary

Voted to hide many anti Clinton posts and leave alone anti Bernie posts

Which candidate one supports does not always have a bearing on what gets hidden

I thought we talked about this?

I'll bet he's a swell guy, even if he does sound like a Norwegian

I wish I had thought of that one.

I posted an open letter from VIPS (Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity) to President Obama. It was signed by a long list of top intelligence professionals. And it was censored. An open letter, censored here. Wow!

There are no free speech rights here; users abide by the terms of service or they leave.

twice.

It is stupid that real factual posts can be censored. I guess we are no longer interested in facts.

as closed minded as Republicans. But this place has taught me a lot.

Why are you even here?

I don't really get that.

Trust but verify as they say.

And then the same cooling down and refocusing period.

The number of people claiming self-imposed exile before anything even happens is hilarious.

"If things can't be my way, I'm outta here!" without even knowing what it will actually be like.

... where he wrote a book about that heroic conservative crusader Teve Torbes.

Sigh. Good times.

It can be very difficult for a lazy mind to simply be civil, so I understand your precautions, regardless of your flawed premise regarding praise and criticism.

that is "acceptable", eh? Not alertable unless it is done by a Bernie supporter.

and you take issue with what Lantern Waste said?

Can ye nae recognize humur when ye see it?
