Wow. This forum needs to just be renamed the we hate Hillary forum.

[AgadorSparticus]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Raine1967 (a host of the 2016 Postmortem forum).

The majority of the threads are Anti Hillary. I feel like I am on free republic. I get that you don't like Hillary, but at some point, the constant screaming about what a good awful person she is starts to fall on deaf ears. Desensitization happens. It is a little too much. Democracy will not be saved this way. You are just going to turn a lot of people off. July 25th, right?

I will be making my exit from this forum too.....that is all. Carry on....

1. Meta garbage.

Most of the threads are about a front page story. Whinge on. Whinge off, friend.

[Matt_in_STL]

2. Is this an option or are you just messing with me?

[GreatGazoo]

43. LOL

[themaguffin]

3. What is happening is ridiculous & immature unfortunately as demonstrated by the reply right below...

[Matt_in_STL]

8. Agreed. I can't believe she would harm the party by being so careless.

And then to lie about it repeatedly as if she wouldn't get caught just takes the cake. I am glad someone gets it here.

[cheapdate]

23. Agree. How she used email is super-important.

I can tolerate a lot of faults in a candidate, but using a Blackberry isn't one of them.

[Matt_in_STL]

26. I'm more concerned about her lack of judgment in regard to security.

But I guess that just comes from not wanting our secrets falling in the wrong hands. Whether she spread it via email, phone, or telling her neighbor is inconsequential.

[cheapdate]

32. Yes. Grandma is at risk because Hillary's email spoke unkindly about Iran.

[Matt_in_STL]

33. Yes, because that's all that was in there.

I am sure all those classified emails were classified for fun.

[Myrina]

4. Here, let me fix that for you ...

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhmbulance, on the way ...

[pdsimdars]

24. Or . . . . in pictroal form . . . ..

.

[Dawgs]

5. Politics ain't for the weak.

And, she's NOT the nominee yet.

[hellofromreddit]

6. I didn't hate her until she couldn't pour a beer.

Horrifying.

[Matt_in_STL]

10. She looks so proud. Like when my kid finally learned to color inside the lines.

[hellofromreddit]

21. Your kid's got me beat. Lifetime scribbler here.

[VulgarPoet]

37. ...what in the fresh hell is that?

[BootinUp]

7. Its been this way a long time. DU does not represent

anything close to your average Democratic Primary voter or average Democratic candidate voter.

[workinclasszero]

9. Hate is all they have left

Wait until Hillary is declared the nominee shortly after the NJ polls close.

I'm sure the hate and rage will explode all over the forum!

[fun n serious]

16. She will be declared before Cali votes are done

[workinclasszero]

17. She will be

And I will be happy!!

[fun n serious]

22. Me too. It's nasty here.

I wish Skinner would tighten it up now.

[workinclasszero]

29. He should have tightened it up a couple of months ago

IMHO. But...

The day is fast approaching when the banhammer returns for all those who oppose the democratic party and its nominee.

I can't wait to post again on a democratic party supporting board!!

[RufusTFirefly]

11. Why? Do you hate her? I don't.

I just vehemently disagree with her on most major issues, find her convenient, last-minute changes of position unconvincing and her penchant for secrecy and friendliness with neocons, fat cats, and war criminals troubling.

[Renew Deal]

27. Did Bernie vote for the war in Afghanistan?

Was Bernie really a lifetime supporter of full equality?

[nc4bo]

12. All of it could have easily been avoided. Her choice. So

Please own Hillary.

[Shadowflash]

13. ''I will be making my exit from this forum too''

[LexVegas]

14. All HRC hate...all the time. nt

[JackInGreen]

15. don't let the door hit ye

where the sith lord split ye, toodles.

[pdsimdars]

18. I don't see any anti-Hillary, what I see is anti-law breaking, etc.

EVERYTHING said about Hillary isn't PERSONAL.

If someone posts a post calling her out about LYING to everyone about her emails. That isn't about Hillary, it is about her LYING to us.

If someone posts a post critical of her position on TPP, that isn't about Hillary, it is about her position on the TPP.

By your trying to make every criticism about her PERSONAL, you are trying to shut down discussion and criticism of her positions on ISSUES.

If you'd just stick to the ISSUES, maybe you would feel they way you do.

[Trust Buster]

19. I'm truly sorry to hear that you are being chased away. The attacks on Hillary on this site by

Sanders supporters have changed the overall character of DU. Right wing sources are now their preferred sources. What's worse is that they attack Hillary endlessly and then attack her supporters when we respond in disgust. If they can't bully us, then they hide as many of our posts as possible. The major thing that I've learned this cycle is that the far Left is just as intolerant, nasty and mean spirited as the far Right. I, personally, will hang in here because I believe that the will of the voter should be observed and must overcome that hatred of radicalism. The far Right and far Left will destroy this country unless the middle stops them. I feel it my duty.

[workinclasszero]

35. Sadly I learned this too

"The major thing that I've learned this cycle is that the far Left is just as intolerant, nasty and mean spirited as the far Right"

From day one the attacks using vile right wing sources like the Blaze, fox news etc started and continue to this day. Its seriously just like free republic on this board and I am still shocked that it was allowed TBH.

I just hope BU returns to DU finally and we can quickly get to the deadly serious task of stopping a fascist demagogue named Trump from controlling the destiny of this country and our lives.

[Trust Buster]

41. I share your sentiments. If have 20,000+ posts on another site that is about 60% Repub and

40% Dem. I have always defended the far Left on that site. But, the similarities in temperament between both fringes of the parties have become so clear to me in the past few months. They both react negatively to the word "compromise". Needless to say, on that other mixed site, I no longer defend the far Left. They're on their own now in my mind.

[hobbit709]

40. But Hillary supporters are as pure as the newly fallen snow when it comes to Sanders.

Never, ever has anyone from your camp made any kind of disparaging, flat out lying, or disgusting comment about Sanders

[pinebox]

20. Ya it reflects the majority of America.

[pdsimdars]

25. And please, please tell all of us . . . . . in a grown up way . . . . . .

And why you think disagreeing with her on these issues is "hating" Hillary?


.

[Renew Deal]

28. It should calm down on DU in around 2 weeks

[bigwillq]

30. Oh, boo hoo

Then start a positive thread. No one is stopping you.

[Trajan]

31. You are already ignored

Tsk Tsk ...

[INdemo]

34. If you would ever have a converstaion with Democrats out in the

public arena,you would find that Hillary is hated by many.Their favorite saying is "Hillary is not Bill and they have both changed since joining the Republican corporatists."...

Hillary brought this on herself by selling her soul to Goldman Sachs and Wall St. and the Big Banks

Talk to Democrats you know at your favorite coffee shop sometime.....

[BillZBubb]

36. It's not hate. It's telling the truth about a dishonest, corrupt politician. Deal with it.

[Dem2]

38. Yes, they are defusing any possible right-wing attacks this fall

While at the same time using right-wing sources to show that they may or may not be actual progressives.

[SidDithers]

39. Yup...

But the BS stops in a couple weeks.




Sid

[NCTraveler]

42. No doubt we have an anti-progressive movement that has formed here.

Hatred of Boxer and the promotion of Trump. Hatred of Krugman and support of Goodman. Hatred toward Maddow and support of Fox News and Judicial Watch.

I do like the transparency and how the desperation has them outing themselves.

[Raine1967]
