39. They cannot stand the fact that there's not many Clinton people who bother with GD:P or reply.

That's why they come on the Clinton board to try to stir up stuff. At most, all they can do is alert on a few posts, get a few things hidden and maybe get a couple of people kicked off. It's a tough road..... You do see a lot of posts where they say "why won't any Clinton people explain her policies or explain this or that." It's really almost sad. They don't REALLY want a chorus of agreement on there which is pretty much all there is there. It gets boring very quickly. That's why many spend a lot of time here.... But then they get kicked off. It's amazing to see the list of Sanders supporters who have gotten banned from here. Some of them just cannot take being ignored so they must resort to coming in here. They do love to be able to brag about getting kicked off - it's really a win-win for them.

I've never even been on the Sanders board (although GD is sort of the Sanders board.)

As someone who works in the field of Psychology and specializes in group behavior, this board is a marvelous Petri dish.
