2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumAfter the exodus a couple months ago, it does my heart good to see HRC supporters returning
GDP may still be lopsided to one particular candidate, but it is no longer just three or four voices on the other side. Good to see, indeed.

Just get out there and work for and donate to Hillary!

(36,392 posts)It would seem that they "have some need" to shelter themselves from opposing views, especially those from the left. About the only thing posted here by the Clinton supporters are polls.

I don't post at that site but I suspect it exists because supporters of a certain candidate can crap on Hillary and her supporters here and if they respond in kind they will have their posts hidden.
It's like a shelter for battered wives.

(11,417 posts)If I posted what I really felt here I wouldn't last a minute. The good part is that in 3 or 4 months Hillary will win the nomination and this shit will stop

There would have been no need for such a site if Bernie's bullies had not taken over here. I have seen jury results that would never have happened before this site was overrun by zealous Bernie supporters.
I know there are people who post there because they have been silenced here.
Bernistas are the ones who created an echo chamber: The Former DU.
Like you, I have not posted there. But I support them fully.
