I rarely post on DU. I have less than 5000

23. To me, correcting someone publicly it comes off as extremely Trumpian

On Friday, the majority of us just watched Trump and Vance go on an attack on Zelenskyy.


So when DU members attempt to degrade and belittle other members for any type of mistake, it comes off as Trumpian to me and it says more about them compared to the person who made the mistake.

There are members here who are near illiterate, some with handicaps, some with bad eye sight, and some like me who have chronic brain fog due to Fibromyalgia. And yet, here I am. I take care of clients who can't care for themselves due to age related conditions or who have dementia for my line of work.

I could type something out, and read it and reread a dozen times I won't catch my mistakes. It doesn't define me and doesn't make me unintelligent. It makes me a human being that makes mistakes. Whatever, it is what it is.

I have seen a few mistakes in OP's and I've privately message the creator of the OP to let them know about the mistake. I'm not making a big deal out of it and I'm letting them know like an adult would let another adult know, instead of belittling the person.

So please don't let them get to you, ALBliberal.
