In reply to the discussion: I have tried to be neutral for the good of the party, but when I hear that Bernie [View all]Vesper
(229 posts)but, by whom. The people endorsing an non progressive who violates the basic principles of the party, or those who object to it?
It seems that a lot of the people doing the trolling are pro Bernie, I got attacked because one such divisive poster decided to make up something to be offended by based on his assumptions. I don.t even gave a lot of posts here, and I merely expressed my disgust over the man Bernie endorsed. Who was doing the trolling and splitting there?
How many 20 week bans has Casey sponsored? How many ultrasound bills? I will be happy to criticize him for the same infractions Melli has committed. See, it's a question of consistency here, and I am seeing that there are trolls here who are remarkably inconsistent. So, it did not take much thinking to prove that there is no hypocrisy here for those criticizing Sanders.
Quite a bit of evidence of which way the trolling is going, and when there is this level of imbalance, you are correct about the trolls, and the bitterness, but for those observing, the snit seems to be initiated by one party, and they really do seem to want to make disagreement into something else entirely.
It is all over social media and here. I gave an issue with Bernie and Ellison supporting this regressive, while attacking one who is a ndeniably progressive.
Planned Parenthood agrees Melli is terrible, and no one believes him on abortion. Spiteful people and trolls are just on automatic attack, the substance does not matter here, just attacks,and lies and from what I've seen, projection.
This is what I usually see in resident trolls on liberal sites, anti choicers on anything to do with abortion in the news etc. I did not expect so much of it here, yet here they are, with use gardening boots on troweling the fertilizer seeking to sow the division and not even hiding their hypocrisy. They are all over the place. Primaries gave winners and losers, that's a given, but I don't Martin O'Malley supporters posting obnoxious threads, though he is not everywhere irritating Democrats on a daily basis either.
I think your guess is 180 degrees off, but do keep calling out the trolls, that's how you out them, on other platforms anyway. Works well on Twitter, the trolls are not very smart and are very thin skinned. A few well sourced facts and they implode.
