That post is informative and talks about issues and legal depositions. Is DU trying to hide the truth now? Pathetic.

Many--if not most--Bernie people have been purged from the jury pool and the last of the most relentless disruptors have been welcomed back in. Add those things to the Jonestown atmosphere among the Hillary faithful and pretty much anything that fails to worship HRC abjectly enough will get hidden.

I've alerted on maybe 5 posts in my 10+ years here.

Saw a horrific anti-semitic post (Bernie as a crusty.old Jew), tried to alert and made that unpleasant discovery.

Purged from jury and alert. Bet many Bernie supporters are here which is why so many Bernie DUers are getting FFR'd lately over stupid bull.

Do you know why you got purged? It seems they should give you the courtesy of notifying you and explaining the rationale.

Maybe that's what has happened with me too. I haven't alerted on a post in ages. Next time I see something over the top I'll send an alert and see what happens.

What's weird is I've had maybe a half dozen hidden posts in 10+ years here. Same with alerts. I'm not a shit stirrer.

unless they support HRH. It might get a little grim around here when Bernie supporters leave and take their donations with them.

Personally its his site and he wants a unified front of Dems going to November.

I think he's sure Hillary will clinch this so he's preemptively shutting down some of us especially as the convention draws closer. TBH, the jury system is broken here and its really lead to a lot of enmity.

But it looks like he thinks the primary is over after the last voting is done.

So many of the highly-rec'd posts on the Greatests page are pro-Bernie that I'm thinking this place will be a ghost town.

I tried to alert wilt the stilt's disgusting slam that Bernie was a crusty jew - that was the 1st time I noticed it.

I don't ever alert but then I tried on a few other posts and got the same result. I figured it went along with Skinners decision to block people from serving on juries. Nobody got that notice either. It's been 3 months since I did a jury. I have 1 hide.

That "purge" is just about the most smarmy thing I have seen here. And that is saying a lot. So funny considering the trolls with 10+ hides running around the place. It's a joke here.

Boy, there's been a lot of kerfluffle over that post today. I think I'll start a new thread that's the same but without the offending links. I'll go do that now.

EDIT: Okay, I started the new thread, here:

It was a bad lock yet again, imho.

on edit: Oh crap, I see that your account is now flagged for review, for having two hides in a day. I hope the review doesn't take long and you are allowed back. Those were both bullshit hyper-partisan 'Camp Clinton alerter got a lucky jury pool' hides, imho.
