76. Let me preface this by saying I happen to be Jewish, and I do not believe Bravenak is anti semitic

Thu Sep 28, 2017, 08:31 PM

Sep 2017

A little background is necessary to understand a true picture of what was happening when this occurred.

Things at DU were as ugly as I have ever seen it in 2016. Emotions and words where exchanged where people said a lot of hurtful and ugly things to each other.

People were harassing each other, alert stalking, and in the emotionally charged environment, a lot of stupid things were said

The comments that are being referred to by Bravenak that caused the uproar was made on another site. The following link presents the excerpt to those comments:

https://www.dailykos.com/comments/1497565/60165323#comment_60165323

Bravenak came out on DU and apologized for those comments. Some here accepted that apology, some didn't.

I believe her apology was sincere, and I sure am proud of her not letting the Susan Sarandon insanity stand unchallenged
