(19,153 posts)You wrote, in response to me: "What is with trying to associate people here with those who 'sat out' the election? Are you trying to smear people here?" Your question would be taken as an accusation by most people.
My statement was a general statement. I took the statement of the poster I was referring to, to be general as well. That is, targeted at the general voting-eligible public. Who, by the way, are easily misled into believing stupid things about how they should vote (or not), even if that is not the specific intention of someone who is trashing our Democratic candidates at a site like this or other places in the media or social media.
The point of the OP is that from a strategic standpoint we should focus far more on the failings and evil of our opponents, rather than helping to tear down Democrats. I agree THAT statement is directed at people here on this board. That doesn't mean that every response in support of the OP is specifically about people who post here. Mine was not, and you indeed made an assumption if you thought it was.
