(135,425 posts)First, DU doesn't have thought police, but it does have Community Standards, a Terms of Service, and an "About Us" page that I suspect you haven't read. If you're not politically liberal then maybe you're in the wrong place. This IS a website for the politically liberal--how do I know? It's written right on the page, that's how.
Here, read this: http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus
When you're done with that, read this: http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=termsofservice
Second, DU doesn't have "moderators." We police ourselves via the jury system.
Third, I don't constantly alert--in fact, I often prefer to point out behavior rather than alert on it. I find that if you give some folks enough rope, they'll hang themselves.
When the FIRST resort is the personal insult, it says something about a person.
