I have seen so much transphobia on DU today

[Emit]

60. I alerted on that very thread and here is the response I received

At Thu Aug 22, 2013, 04:50 PM you sent an alert on the following post:

Chelsea Manning or Bradley Manning?

REASON FOR ALERT:

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate. (See <a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus#communitystandards" target="_blank">Community Standards</a>.)

YOUR COMMENTS:

This is hurtful to the transgender community and their loved ones. Why even post this - we're a open-minded forum that emphasizes tolerance and acceptance and ignorant post like this serve to do the opposite.

JURY RESULTS

A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Thu Aug 22, 2013, 05:00 PM, and voted 3-3 to LEAVE IT ALONE.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT and said: Agree with alerter.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: first I voted to hide, then I did not like the intolerant tone of the alert.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: I understand the confusion to someone who may have not been in touch with this whole saga. I do not see it as insulting or intolerant
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT and said: The alerter expresses my sentiments exactly.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Alerter needs to grow up. Poster admitted they are having a hard time. They didn't say shit about about being hateful or intolerant. Alerter is a fucking asshole for wasting peoples time.

Thank you.

This day has been a very sad day for me at DU - very disheartening.
