1. I must wash socks first. n/t

[MrChuck]

2. Laugh it up.

3. The danger level is so high right now, we need to stop and think before we post something online?

And here on DU?

The cult killed one of their own cult leaders but they are itching to harm liberals,
so perhaps we need to tone things down?

So at least be aware that we may be putting ourselves in danger?

7. Yes question marks at the end of sentence denote it is a question, not a statement.

I am talking your comments in good faith, I just want to make sure I understand them
before I respond.

8. What is the exact danger?

What are the nature of the online threats against us?

(Sorry two more question marks.).

13. Rantings by a demented grandpa without enough meds, and by his

fascistic sycophants, that much is sure.... rantings which encourage the very type of terrorism
which they are supposedly ranting against....


Just an observation that you both may have thoughts that are worthy of thought....

As for myself, I am pushing back--- but I have little left to lose.

12. "The cult killed one of their own cult leaders"

Please expand on this, certainly news to me. Which 'cult' was Robinson a member of?

(I had a busy day, so I'm not up to speed on the latest out there).

15. Quite possibly "Groypers", followers of Nick Fuentes.... GOOGLE them

The very-far right Nick Fuentes, several months back,
previously having received one of the largest prison sentences for J-6 before Trump pardoned them all,
attacked Charlie Kirk for
(wait for it)---
not being 'far right enough'. so did the very far right 'nut-chick' Laura Loomer,
who attacked him for being 'a traitor to Trump'......


For all his very many faults, Charlie Kirk wanted the Epstein files to be released....

4. I turned off the tv and all things trump and I'm about to

resume my reading of The Lion Women of Tehran. I’m about a third through it and it’s excellent so far.

I just finished The Frozen River and that was a very good read. I can’t handle much of the real world right now.

9. I am a little slow sometimes, so I'm not sure I understand.

You say,

Diversifying the sources of your intake is important

and you also say,

I'm seeing activity and commentary on other forums escalating in ways that are troubling

.
My initial reaction is to stay away from those other, troubling sites.
What am I missing here?

[Skittles]

14. you are missing nothing

it is....well, you know

[Jack Valentino]

16. I read DU and DAILYKOS, mostly.... along with some 'social media'....

any specific sites beyond those you would recommend watching???---

(and I don't exclude any 'sites of the enemy'
as being 'worth watching'---
even when it might be painful---

We wouldn't watch such sites in search of any 'truth',
but just to keep abreast of their current mindset.... )
