Black DUers Matter

114. You know what? I have been alert stalked

I have been cyber stalked, (yes met the legal definition, chased around not just one but two sites, and some of it came from people HERE... most of it came from who I actually think is the guilty party in this production (A RIGHT WING site, well known)... not the site itself, but a member, and it is not the first time, will not be the last time, they pull that crap.

I continue to get cyber harassed. I have had that experience here denied, by people who do it. It is happening. But you know what? This is not because they are AA, mostly. It is becuase it is not a bug, it is a feature of how DU works and some folks, for many reasons, race, color, national origin, we pissed the wrong woodchuck in the morning, get special attention from a few really, I mean this, REALLY BAD APPLES.

Most people would have left DU after all that has been done to me, in this place, and it is a very small group of people who are doing it. They get applause when they do it, not any kinds of consequences.

So here is my suggestion, We all need to be aware of it. Alert stalking is happening. Harassment is happening, some has risen to the level of cyber stalking... and it is time we all go enough is enough and demand that the tools that are being used to do this to MANY OF US, not just African American members of this board. are changed.

Because this will not change otherwise.

And as to issues that matter to the AA group, I care deeply for them. But becuase of actions of some of the members of that group, I shan't post about those issues on DU, but will continue to work towards a real life solution in my local streets, with local activists. and will continue to be involved in the civil rights struggle of our times. You know why? Their lives matter, as much as mine, and anybody else's... but this scourge is quite structural, thank you very much. The system of white supremacy is real, privilege is real..
