I've Been Away From The Computer Today And Just Got Back On & Reading Bernie Going Negative?....

There are a few posts here - mainly in the Hillary Group - that say that Bernie has gone negative. What did he say or do to generate that feedback from the Hillary people?

He had tbe guts to publicly point out that she voted for the Iraq War and is too chummy with Wall Street Bankers and corporations. So negative to point out her factual record. HOWEVER DARE HE!

It is no different than when Trump blamed Fox/Megan Kelly for being to tough on him when she asked a question about insulting women. It is just projection to keep the eyes of the gullible public away from seeing what is being said is true. People react to shocking headlines rather than facts.

If you look at material from the past you'll notice a huge difference.

On Tue Apr 26, 2016, 04:36 PM an alert was sent on the following post:

I've Been Away From The Computer Today And Just Got Back On & Reading Bernie Going Negative?....
http://www.democraticunderground.com/1280185635

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

trolling. why is this person here in the group?

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Tue Apr 26, 2016, 04:48 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Does not appear to be trolling. Poster appears to be a group member in good standing. If group hosts don't like post then they can act accordingly.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Has global1 posted in Bernie group before? I think the responses clue in the OP.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: global1 is a regular poster in the Bernie Sanders group, and this post is far removed from trolling. Knock it off with the alert stalking.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Nothing inappropriate about this one, not against the TOS, the host of the group can ban the poster but this is not a jury matter

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

now I know how Bernie feels when he's accused of going negative.

I thought something happened today that I didn't hear of.

Sorry if I offended anyone here. I'm a proud Bernie supporter. I phone banked for him here in Illinois. I still have my Bernie lawn sign up in front of my house and it will be there to and through the convention.

Thanks to all of you that had my back and said 'Leave It Alone'.



Go Bernie!!!
Feel the Bern!!!!

probably 75% of every jury duty I have been on resulted from an alterter that disagreed with what was said and thought that was enough to find it rude, obnoxious etc even though the post was objectively non-offensive. I always read the full thread to understand the context of why it was alerted, but that always just made it more obvious the alert was abusive. This last weekend was the worst about that.

I know I am new here only being a member for less than two months so I don't know if that is the norm.

DICK VAN DYKE: In Bernie Sanders I see a man saying that the empror has no clothes, while everyone around him insists they see clothes. Whether or not he makes it to the White House, I hope and pray that everyone hears the alarm he is sounding now, it may be the last voice we ever hear.

Airplane jokes aside, I think it was some rogue Hillary asshole, because if a paid troll bragged about it they would no doubt lose their job.

They try to trick you into fighting them which makes their post trend on the front page. They are just making stuff up at this point.

It's worse than high school around here sometimes.
