2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumI was in no way promoting Stein
I never intend either to slam the Demmocratic Nominee Hillary Clinton.
My first OP was about concerns about the civility issues in politics.
Yes Stein demonize Hillary but it doesnt give us the permission to enter her game, and go into uglyness ourselveves
Because
The stakes are too high and POLITICS DESERVE BETTER THAN NAME CALLING. Everywhere
My second hidden OP was analyzing the current state of RNC and I basically said in a sense we are lucky big named RWers and neocon aisle isnt with Trump, so that it actually helps Hillary.
No I am done.
I think my statements were misinterpreted.
It can happen
That is called diversity.
Now, if you want to hide this because it doesnt accords to your sensibilities, please proceed.
It just would be so revealling on how sad political world has become.
Oh, and by the way, if my account is suspended, well,no rancor, and enjoy this process, and we will rejoice together again when Trump will go histerycal after Hillary s victory!!!!!
And.
Go Hillary! #NeverTrump!

(44,130 posts)People seem exhausted, stressed, and hyper-sensitive. Maybe some residual post-primary wars fatigue too. Some to me don't seem to be thinking as clearly they usually do.
If I were king of DU, I'd recommend everybody log off for a couple days, have some fun, recharge their batteries. And come back fresh and rested and ready!
I am an optimist so I believe things might calm down soon. Hang in there and stick around!

(25,471 posts)As such, she is going to be a target of some animosity on DU. After some of the ridiculous statements that she has made recently about our candidate, the animosity is well-deserved.
Stein is no doubt pandering to the fringes, but that doesn't excuse her silly statements. They deserve scorn.
It really isn't any more complicated than that.

(175,739 posts)She could well prove to be a spoiler in an election where the primary opponent is Donald Trump. Donald Trump in the presidency would be the equivalent of France electing Marine Le Pen. His incredible lack of knowledge, know nothingness, racism and narcissism would likely result in his exploding the U.S. -- and thus the world's -- economies.
Trump's giving the Russians the green light to move into former satellite states that are now NATO members would reverberate all the way to France in terms of a refugee crisis far more overwhelming than the current one. At the very worst, Trump's lack of foreign policy knowledge and his ego could lead to a widespread war in Europe.
And you actually have a problem with sharp criticism of Jill Stein? That boggles the mind.

(11,769 posts)all anyone had to do was a simple DU search and see all those attack posts. Honestly, I'm a little surprised the Admins have let you keep your account.

(13,340 posts)But I do think your concern is misplaced. Stein is an inexperienced, ill informed, and dangerous zealot. She deserves all the criticism she gets.
