(1,446 posts)draw out enough of the bad behavior from the Sandroids to get them exposed once DU goes into general election mode.
We've moved on. Thankfully the media is providing us with a lot of fodder today.

(23,926 posts)At least we won't be subjected to any more bullshit alerts from that particular delicate flower for at least another 24 hours.
On Tue May 17, 2016, 09:02 PM an alert was sent on the following post:
Luckily most people have a better sense of humor than the Sandroids. nt

REASON FOR ALERT
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Sandroids? Really? This is the kind of cheap name-calling that is going to make it very hard to bring people together for the general election. It makes DU a stupid and hostile place, and we're better than that.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Tue May 17, 2016, 09:11 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Seen worse. This place is going to gutter anyhow
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: If the Democratic party really expressed progressive ideas, this post would not even be happening, but alas, they are not.
Best to leave it up so all can see it.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No worse than Hillarians, which I use alert- free, for the most part
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: If this gets hidden, then 3/4 of GDffth would get hidden. No, I don't have GDffth trashed.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Oh for fuck's sake! It's a poetical discussion forum in the middle of primary season. Toughen the Hell up or find another hobby; but WHATEVER you do, please stop wasting everybody's time with ridiculous alerts.
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

(50,254 posts)And HRC is doomed to lose if Sanders supporters are made unwelcome in this party.
We are only going to be distinguishable from the GOP if we completely move past Third Way politics and economics.

(1,446 posts)progressive change realize that Sanders never had any plans to implement such change. He discovered too late that a revolution needs more than a couple of months of pre-planning. If someone wants to lead a well coordinated - years long - effort to push forward progressive issues, working with the Democratic Party instead of against them, I will gladly support that candidate.
Ken Burch
(50,254 posts)It would have been a tragedy if HRC had been unopposed for the nomination. She would have run to Obama's right.
And maybe this campaign was the only way to organize the movement we both want.
There was never going to be any chance to organize it if we had accepted the party nominating nothing but corporate centrists ffor the next twenty years(which is what not having Bernie run would have to have meant).
Something big and national was needed to make the organization happen. It wasn't going to be possible to organize a left sole,t through state initiatives and local campaigns.
