I'm going to drop this here...

74. I saw the taking of the microphone, the wild insults, the refusal to allow Sanders to speak, ...

... the bowdownbernie hashtag, and then the later insistence that none of these things were relevant to any discussions about the message delivery of Marissa Janae Johnson, who claimed to be a leader of the Black Lives Matter chapter in Seattle, as being something of a sticking point for many people. I guess we all remember that time on DU differently. To be clear, I don't remember what you wrote in your second paragraph as being the history I lived through.

Given that our memories are different I'm not sure of there being any utility to responding further. You say a lot of other insightful things about sharing experiences but I think any discussion we might have about them would keep circling back to our different perspective on recent history here. But I read your post and felt where you're coming from, if that means anything.

Have a good night!
