Electric Larry's JournalThe point is, to say that anyone who doesn't lose their shit over porn, swimsuits, and
Spiderwoman's butt, isn't a "real liberal", and in fact is somehow echoing right wing views - is facile, flat out false, and in fact 180 degrees from the actual political reality.
Yeah.
Now THERE is an actual, real gaping hole on DU.
But then, that was someone who never went in for self-congratulatory bs or the like... Who simply showed up and fought the good fight, and defended her right to make up her own mind on her own terms.
The word "loss" is tossed around too easily, when anyone can post a GBCW thread in GD, drum up 100 "please don't go" responses, and then make a dramatic exit, only to show up six months later "I'm back!!!! miss me?"
And we're talking about screen names, fake nom de plumes by people who, for all we know, have 20 socks in the drawer. Raindog was a real loss, an actual loss.
The good ones don't announce their leaving. The great ones, like raindog- man, I sure wish I could have at least said goodbye.
Old news. Grovelbot has been riding the rails for years
He was traveling with the hobo circuit in the 1930s, singing folk songs and eating old screws and bolts out of a rusty tin can warmed over a campfire.
