Goodbye Will Twain: A ratfucker unmasked

350. Considering you just called me a DINO

And then, demonstrating the courage of your convictions, deleted it. http://election.democraticunderground.com/10026552199#post12

I have a few questions. What precisely is your definition of DINO? Is it that I don't adore right wing rat fuckers working to see the GOP elected? Because I don't think Hillary Clinton is worse than Ted Cruz? Because I care about social justice rather than elevating the economic prosperity of all important middle- and upper-middle class white male above all else? Is it because I care about trivial stuff like human rights, gender equality and poverty rather than cabinet appointments and who is seen with whom? If I were a true Democrat, would I be devoting myself to see the GOP regain the presidency rather than looking to support Democratic electoral prospects? Do I need to pretend that I only just figured out that inequality exists during the recent stock market crash when I lost my hypothetical wealth, rather than knowing, as I do, that the nation was born from inequality? Would I need to pretend I know fuck all about US history and that before the mid-60s this country was a land of milk and honey, or at least for the people who really matter?

And just when do you plan on confronting the owner of this site about being a so-called DINO? He has publicly and actively come out in support of a candidate for president you insist doesn't constitute a real Democrat, a DINO. Yet here you are, posting on his site, contributing to his profits, insulting other members as DINOs, without the courage to confront the owner himself.

I think it's a pretty screwed up definition of DINO you have when you define a true Democrat as someone who opposes the party and a fake one as someone who supports it. Perhaps, just perhaps, there might be a slight problem with assuming you and only you have the right to determine who is fit to be considered a Democrat? Did you ever consider that your exclusionary attitude might actually run counter to any conceivable goals related to leftism that depend on the solidarity of the working-class and the poor? But then, that would require giving a shit about any of that, which your active dismissal of just about everyone except yourself and your little circle, suggests otherwise.
