Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumHuge numbers blocked from the Hillary Clinton group
It's a statement that we've heard numerous times. Here are my thoughts on that subject.
A little perspective on that comment. First, Bernie supporters outnumber Hillary supporters here about 6 to 1. Secondly, Bernie supporters are more prone to shoot from the hip. It's not a problem. The problem is where they're aiming.Thirdly, I would venture a guess that if you took the number of supporters blocked from each group the disparity would be totally different given the percentages of supporters on each side. Last, but not least, I believe Hillary's supporters, for the most part, make a conscious effort to avoid Bernie's group. I have seen plenty of posts from Bernie supporters who come to the group with genuine respect, and that respect has been reciprocated. If one comes into the group like a wolf in sheep's clothing, it won't take long to get the deserved boot.
I'm posting this here just to see how many won't be able to help themselves.

(297,029 posts)they will get blocked. This is a Group for Hillary and her Supporters. Period. More of them come in here than Hill supporters go into the BS group.
They're always claiming we're quick to Block without admitting that the BS group is even quicker.. quickessssst if you will.
I have the BS in the trash where it belongs.

(51,545 posts)But now that the Hillary Group no longer appears on the front page, or in Trending, do you notice less Sanders supporters showing up to disrupt Hillary Group threads?
Cha
(297,029 posts)There's not "trending" for groups now?
Oh, and PS.. it's up to everyone to know where they are.. And, there were those who asked to self-delete and not be blocked and this was done for them.
I just got a PM from someone I blocked and that said.. "I find your post disingenuous".. well, big surprise.. that's one reason they were blocked.. they just didn't get that.. they couldn't come in here and scold us no matter how "nice" they were. This is for Hillary Supporters. I gave them a few chances to stop it and then in the end I just got tired of having to tell them.

(51,545 posts)That whole "I didn't know I was in the Hillary Group" excuse is lame. If it was an honest mistake they'd self delete, but they rarely do.

(7,286 posts)Sixth: all sorts of trolls jump in here not just BS supporters.
7th: many banned posters are blocked here first. I would be interested to know the exact number

(27,800 posts)and was blocked instantly, even after I explained. But the difference is that this is almost only the place to post without being swarmed. The Washington State group and GDP are 80% taken over!

(6,280 posts)... apologized for the intrusion, and backed out. Haven't been back since simply because it takes very little conscious effort to read what group a thread is in.

(30,058 posts)BS group, accidently got there by Latest. I don't understand the complaining we see over and over after a disparaging remark one is banned from a group, hey, take it and go on without complaining.

Cause it was an important topic. The competence of Sanders team. It was a simple question w/no commentary or loaded phrases.
Then much later on, I posted on a thread by accident without knowing it was in the BS Group and got the notice I was blocked.
Fair enough. I didn't whine like many others do about getting blocked from this group or that one. BFD.
I sure as heck don't go over there now and certainly don't alert stalk the way the Sanders group does here.
Honestly, I never even came into the Hillary Clinton Group either until recently. I prefer a forum like GDP where both sides can express themselves
and we all see how the jury system was gamed against anyone who doesn't agree w/ BS.
I think it says a lot that I have no one on ignore and have been here since close to day one, survived a number of Democratic Primaries and only just had to trash the whole GDP Forum the other day.

(6,280 posts)For a certain group of BS supporters, their posts provide me with the opportunity to expose their ignorance, bias, and the hipocracy. As for that certain group's vow to not support Hillary if she is the democratic nominee? Three words: I DON'T CARE!
They started preaching to the choir a long time ago.
