(57,751 posts)who has responsibility for making DU suck because she didn't like posts dozens of people have judged misogynistic and racist by someone who was deemed a troll by administrators. I gave you examples of that racism above, and you ignored it. Not only that, you repeatedly take offense at the mildest statements, while insisting others have no right to object to posts they see as bigoted because you aren't bothered by them. What else could possibly matter but your view of who is and isn't acceptable? Not the administrators of the site, not dozens and dozens of members. All this in defense of a troll. It doesn't look to me like you are in any position to cast stones at others. I happen to find what you take offense at incredibly petty compared to what bettyellen and peacenikki do. They care about actual issues, issues you say you care about but somehow have no problem with a banned member who called people like you and the rest of us hysterical for caring about something as petty as a Supreme Court decision. I fail to see the logic in your reasoning. It appears to me that you are the one fixated on personality over substance, and for some reason you liked that particular banned member, while seemingly disliking two women who care a great deal about reproductive rights.
Additionally, you ignore the most salient issue which was his misuse of his powers as a host.
