The ignore function

[DetroitSocialist83]

The past two days have been great for this. I've rid my life of just about all of the Hillbulllies on this site.

1. It is kind of sad, but after so many years here, I've started using it a lot recently too.

The desperate nonsense coming out of Camp Weathervane is just not worth consideration.

5. "desperate nonsense" wins the prize today for best description. eom

3. 12 years here

I only started ignoring a month ago and have hundreds. Really pathetic. I thought I had them all and then yesterday, it was like starting over. Where do they all come from? She doesn't have that many supporters....

4. I don't like to use it

it keeps me off the juries.

6. I used to say I would never use it...

But then I just got tired of certain people following me around and commenting garbage on my comments artfully smearing me as a republican...

It is funny now when I start a new discussion and right away I get a few replies and they are all hidden, feels good that they are wasting their blabbering breath.

7. I got banned and hidden for stating facts.

Over in the Hillbot group. Very strongly worded. Not quite "you piece of scum, we don't want you" but close.

I didn't know it was a "safe haven". I thought it was like GD: P.

Boy was I wrong.

I said Bernie was a New Deal Democrat. That was responded to with "Absolute bullshit" which I alerted on, which was hidden 5-2.
And then I guess the response to me was removed and the name too.

Is this some kind of a badge of honor, like Nixon's Enemies List? I remember Daniel Schorr talking about how that was a badge of honor if you were on Nixon's Enemies List along with people like Leonard Bernstein.

DU has spiraled down into poo-flinging and name-calling.
