(5,402 posts)I have sympathy and empathy. Unfortunately there is a concerted effort by a few in the AA group to falsely paint supporters of Bernie Sanders as racists. No one should endure the abuse you described, nor should a small number of people falsely accuse another group of racism. Could you point me towards the posts where DU-er told you...
"I have no right to my opinion."
"I should know my place."
"I'm worthless and that I need to know my place..."
"question me on why I do not let people who are hostile towards me online spew their stuff at me that blocking them makes me the extreme one."
If people in the AA group are telling you these things, I'd like the links so that I can go to those threads, defend you, and set them straight.
If, however, this is another attempt to paint Bernie supporters as racists, then you need to back it up with evidence.
