From now on, I'm considering ALL negative posts and polls about President Biden as not supporting Democrats. [View all]

Yes, that's right, unless you are giving context as to why this fucking negative kkkrap is on DU.

For example: "This negative poll about President Biden makes me sick and I hate it!!" Or, "Take a look at this horrible poll, what can we do to make these numbers better for President Biden and the Democratic party?"

And furthermore, it's Democrat with a capital "D" and also it is not the democrat party. It's the Democratic party.

Rant over. But, forwarned is fairwarned.

Debunking is great!... Think. Again. Mar 3 #31

well, you're free to alert on those posts. mopinko Mar 3 #33

In keeping with the rules, I try to minimize the posts I alert on. Think. Again. Mar 3 #35

there's no rule about that. mopinko Mar 3 #36

The last line in the alert box states:... Think. Again. Mar 3 #38

and as long as u do that, you're fine. mopinko Mar 3 #40

and so, as I mentioned, I try to minimize alerts. Think. Again. Mar 3 #41

"Forwarned"? Are you saying that you're going to alert on any poll that doesn't look good for Biden? muriel_volestrangler Mar 3 #5

Since you acknowledge that any DUer needn't give any fucks about another's opinion muriel_volestrangler Mar 3 #17

Then one must ask if anyone needs to "give a fuck about" the opinion they posted? Autumn Mar 3 #20

I think the economy is great compared to Emile Mar 3 #22

Objectively it is better now than at anytime under Trump Johnny2X2X Mar 3 #25

I think it was Jeff Teidrich who posted the other day, CrispyQ Mar 3 #23

Teidrich did not say, however, that discussing bad news... Silent3 Mar 3 #54

I believe he was referring to the uncommitted movement, which is the stupidest fucking thing ever. CrispyQ Mar 3 #58

I definitely agree about the uncommitted movement Silent3 Mar 3 #62

Worry can translate to criticism. MOMFUDSKI Mar 3 #26

I don't think that limiting DU to just "Happy News" is a good thing... WarGamer Mar 3 #66

I don't really think that it matters how good Biden is (and he is good) or how bad Trump is (and he is awful). Chainfire Mar 3 #67

I don't believe them. Trump doesn't have moderates, even a good portion of republicans support. FlyingPiggy Mar 3 #75
