Where is the big change?

We still have republican conspiracy lies about Hillary plastered all over GDP:

Wikileaks Issues ‘Torrent Insurance’ Encrypted File With Dead-Man's Switch

We still have anti-democratic party screeds:

Flat out: Was California stolen?

We still have people promising to never vote for the democratic nominee:

It's been a true pleasure DU. Even to the people about to "flame" me...

We still have GDP!

What gives????

I'm guessing that the change will start when that announcement is made.

"Our apologies, and thank you for continuing to support and enjoy Democratic Underground. We'll post another announcement on Monday."

which, I suppose, could take place.

However, there was a really nasty one that I alerted and... the message was that it would go straight to the administrators. Not to a jury, not that it was already alerted..

If I wanted to read republican lies about Hillary and the democratic party, I would go to free republic and cut out the "progressive" middleman!

Just take the hate straight up without the hypocrisy, you know?

In the real world, most of what gets posted here is just background noise.

In the real world, most Democrats, Sanders supporters included, are already moving forward to the general election and doing what they can to ensure that Democrats prevail in November.

It's easy to get frustrated and I do it all the time, but it's good to remember that what happens here is just a tiny slice of what's really going on in this election.

the "echo chamber" of Democrats supporting the Democratic nominee in opposition to the Republican nominee and whatever other alternatives may appear.

After having our Hillary supporter opinions stifled and censored for the last year -- we are due!

I can't wait for the "echo chamber" of actual democrats working to defeat the damned republican party and its demagogue racist leader!

Shit this place used to be all about that until a certain person decided he would walk in and take it all over for his own benefit!

for a few minutes, earlier.

It could be that the changes will be more in mechanics than appearance. In any case, when they're finished, they'll announce they've finished.

it looks like anything already posted in GDP remained. So there will still be remnants of the old GDP posts until they fall away as new OP's are posted.
