General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: For Sanders Supporters [View all]This question is about the general election, not what's going on in the primaries.
Why would you assume I want to attack Sanders supporters when I'm planning to vote for Sanders myself? In any case, this is still the primaries, and nothing is decided, so talking about hypothetical votes doesn't violate the TOS in my opinion.
And while I don't disagree that minds and attitudes may change once the GE campaign starts and there is only one candidate left from each party, given the event surrounding Donald Trump in the last week, the issue seemed relevant now, and I was curious what responses would be forthcoming. It's certainly worth asking again in August, but at that point, yes..I would not be surprised if the Admins start bringing the hammer down on people here who voice opposition to the Democratic nominee. That won't be pretty, but I expect (or at least hope) that Skinner will lay that all out very shortly after the convention, so that there will be misunderstanding about what level of dissent he's going to allow. Then people can decide whether they can live with that, or whether they need to abandon DU for the rest of the campaign or for good.
