41. I am not aware of a single person pushing for complacency here.

And finding one or two trolls, on either side of this issue, if you indeed have evidence for that, does not a trend make. There are many DUers advocating against rushing the Trump investigation through just for the sake of pacifying the overly impatient and demanding naysayers. This is a prudent approach, and it does not by any means signify complacency.

Nor do I see any intolerance for any reasonable disagreement. On the contrary, DU is full of calls for tolerance of difference of opinions. Citing myself as an example, with one of my posts in response to a Schiff quote conflating too much caution with immunity, alerting on and removing one post (mine was later reinstated), does not a pattern make.

I also suspect that you are routinely misinterpreting the posts you disagree with. My only trust, as I have repeatedly stated, is in due process of law, which the DOJ is bound by according to the laws passed bu the US Congress at one time or another. Likewise, this is the position, based on my observations, of the overwhelming number of DUers you disagree with. And it is a far cry from trusting the plan or, as you suggest, obeying a nebulous wizard behind the curtain. When it comes to maintaining due process of law as defined by Congress and calls for circumventing it it for the sake of self-gratification or expedience, hell yeah, I will advocate the former and vehemantly disagree with the latter! There is indeed a great advantage to this for me as well as all the rest of Americans, yourself included, and there is absolutely no evidence, despite your statement to the contrary, that would point to an opposite conclusion.
