102. Bettie, you have been here for a long time.

Almost seems like it's a job for
some people.


A job? That sounds like you are saying some people are being paid to post here. I am sure you do not wish to imply that any DUer is a paid troll.

They also swarm... hating her is apparently a hobby.


This is a discussion board and we discuss ideas and view points. We disagree but your use of the word "swarm" is OTT.

a large or dense group of insects, especially flying ones.
"a swarm of locusts"
verb
1.
(of insects) move in or form a swarm.
"a plague of locusts swarmed across the countryside"

move somewhere in large numbers.
"protesters were swarming into the building"


As for hate
that is a very strong word to use against people that disagree with your viewpoint.

They hate her far more than they dislike any republican anywhere.


Welp. The ones on DU you call the "swarm" and "haters" vote Democratic every dayum time. Your innuendo that we like Republicans more than a Democratic candidate is insulting at best.

I think you should reconsider your words and apologize to those of us you insulted. We can agree to disagree, yet insults over facts are unacceptable.
