This is a message for friends of Trumad and people interested in a progressive message board that doesn't have the troll problem JPR has.

The site is just about complete and I am confident enough to start advertising it. Time to kick it up a notch and get this thing movin!

Luv You guys,

trumad

Especially for those of us that can't post on our Facebook pages because the bosses are looking at it!!

Just like I love posting here!

I mostly hang there myself because of people I know and it's a way to have conservation's wlth Trumad or Kama AINA (how does someone as nice and as funny as him become banned). Plus H2O Man & WillPitt signed up but Trumad does a good job of routinely adding stuff like videos, posts, or editorials. I don't see it as a place to hang out instead of DU but rather another progressive place to discuss but I tried JPR but there were too many trolls, there were actually threads cheering the Trump victory.

It's just a place in addition to DU where their aren't trolls and so far all the discussions have been civil so far. Maybe Trumad is a better person to ask, I'm just trying to help him spread the word around because we weren't getting any new members for a few weeks until I posted this thread.

Only ones I knew of were Old Elm Tree which mostly members created as a space without the moderate or centrist wing and I imagine JPR was created for similar reasons but I wasn't around for that, I didn't hear of the place until the day before the election so I went over there when DU was hacked (you can imagine how crazy I was going without a place to discuss with like minded people) but for the most part I didn't feel welcome or there were complaints about the influx of people coming over from DU and there were even Podesta child sex ring threads there before that shootout (which explained where they were coming from).

I'm not sure the reasons why it is created other than Trumad can't post here so he created the site but he has put in a lot of work and continues to do so. It will probably not ever reach DU level traffic but I think there is probably a stronger foundation to work with long view wise and Trumad plans to create a RebelFems website once things are up and running over there.
