In reply to the discussion: Any word from the "Trump is less likely to start a war than Clinton" crowd? [View all]They had issues with Hillary being called the C word here, accusing black members of voting the way they did..cause Stockholm Syndrome and those watermelon and fried chicken threads. Oh and lest we forget, those that admitted proudly that they did not vote Hill in the general election. Last I saw they are all posting at JPR. I read that an admin or is she a founder, marym said it was a okay with Hill to be called the C word there, she had no problem with that at all...though she gave a stern warning. Never ever call another poster that here!!!!! That would be rude, insensitive and unacceptable. Lol...good to know JPR has some ethics...

42. Thanks for proving my point
Of the three posts you cite, the two that actually accused Clinton of being a warmonger were from people who haven't posted here since 2016. The third post, by struggle4progress, merely reported Assange's accusation without endorsing it.
Here's the point: The reason that the vehemently anti-Clinton people haven't posted on DU about the Syria strike is that many of them were PPR'd or FFR'd long ago. Others have left in disgust because they know that any post that presents their views about Clinton will be quickly removed.
This is not a First Amendment issue. The site's admins have the right to implement whatever policies they want. It just means that you have to take the context into account before drawing inferences from the absence of posts on DU.

I have a feeling they'll ignore any little war things Trump does and spend all their time

Tons of folks who think risking seats to cons is worth electing a pure candidate.

Is this directed to people like me who criticize Hillary for her Iraq War Vote?
