Irony Alert: I got an alert & hide in the Hillary Clinton group for talking about the alert stalking

114. In the admin's defense, the ratio issue may not have occurred to them.

That is why how to measure what is going on in an organization is as big of an issue as the measurements themselves.

Of the most active users here, there are probably around 500 folks of whom 425 are Bernie supporters and 75 are Hillary Supporters (given that around 85% of DU are Bernie supporters and around 15% are Hillary Supporters from most polls conducted to measure this)

Admins (and anyone else) may not realize that if 20 Bernie supporters and 20 Hillary supporters get timeouts over the past 4 months, that does not mean the alert/jury situation is "OK". That reflects an obvious situation of alert stalking and jury bias as that means 27% of Hillary Supporters were given timeouts while only 5% of Bernie supporters were given time outs.

And I would be surprised if it was even that close. I dont think 20 or even 15 Bernie supporters have received timeouts in the last 4 months while on the other side, we know for sure (see OP) 20 very active DUers who are Hillary supporters were given timeouts in the last 4 months and there may be more.

I have no doubt there is a massive problem and that Hillary supporters are being alert-stalked off the site.
