Hillary Clinton
In reply to the discussion: Repost: Cha AND Sheshe We Have Your Back "Hillary Clinton Group" [View all]sharp_stick
(14,400 posts)80. Candidate Groups
Like this one for Hillary Clinton and the ones for the other candidates are supposed to be places where supporters of that candidate can take part in discussions that are positive for their candidate.
There is a subset of members that seem to really enjoy going into the candidate groups of others and hitting alert on anything and everything. When a member has five posts hidden they are prohibited from posting again until one of their hidden posts expires 90 days from the hide and by alerting on almost everything someone posts there's a decent chance that they will find enough jurors feeling the same way and the poster will be given a time out.
If that sounds childish, vindictive and plain stupid that's pretty much correct.

I don't think this board would survive if something isn't done about the fubared jury system.

This kind of piling on a DU member has become acceptable since Sanders declared his candidacy
