(14,764 posts)It was the wing nuts, deplorables, racists that voted for him. Yet you want to come on here and sow division on DU (as if we don't have enough on our plates) and blame a percentage of members who also joined a tiny website where broader discussion is allowed?
Most of those that joined JPR last July left here because it was a refuge and somewhere we could go after all critical discussion was banned and some felt it was important to have somewhere to go where they could feel free to raise any issues they had with Trump, Bernie, or Hillary.
I certainly did not agree with everyone on there. I wrote back against the Alex Jones types. I wrote against the idea of burning down the house as a means to some fantasy utopia. It is a much more open place. Of COURSE you will get more extreme views. Manny wrote an OP on why he DID vote for Hillary.
The vast majority that immigrated from here last July to JPR simply wanted a place to vent concerns they were forbidden to raise in here. Yes some had issues with Hillary's and the DLC corporate influence in their party. Many thought Bernie was the better choice and wanted a place where they could speak about it.
So fucking what!!
Please stop these kinds of petty ugly divisive OPs.
