Pretty much any prominent Democrat who tweets gets vile hateful comments emulatorloo Mar 2019 #1
I wasn't talking about tweets from prominent Democrats. Tweets from this DU community floppyboo Mar 2019 #4
Yes see my third paragraph above. emulatorloo Mar 2019 #19
Context is everything... hlthe2b Mar 2019 #2
yes - following the link. Not doing it anymore. Was too sad and mean! floppyboo Mar 2019 #3
that's why the admins made it possible to embed tweets. Stick with those posts that do, I guess. hlthe2b Mar 2019 #5
explain please. So if there is just a link, but no text, that is ok and embedded? floppyboo Mar 2019 #8
Here is a post of my own that includes an embedded tweet hlthe2b Mar 2019 #11
I would be totally cool with someone posting the tweet and not the link floppyboo Mar 2019 #6
It is content on DU which is juried not content elsewhere. hlthe2b Mar 2019 #7
so if the content is posted to DU, then it can be juried here? nt floppyboo Mar 2019 #10
If what is posted breaks the TOS rules for the site, yes, but again context is everything. hlthe2b Mar 2019 #13
what about deriding LW comments against some Dems? floppyboo Mar 2019 #14
well, it is against the rules to attack (not just criticize) but attack DEMS, but I'd try to be sure hlthe2b Mar 2019 #15
But this is exactly the problem I'm having! floppyboo Mar 2019 #16
Well, you could include some posts/links to recent posts in a question to 'Ask the Administrators' hlthe2b Mar 2019 #17
I have asked a # of questions. 2 months and waiting... floppyboo Mar 2019 #18
If people don't remove the "mobile." from the link, they just get the link, not tblue37 Mar 2019 #9
this makes sense to me, as I don't have a phone and have to go through some steps floppyboo Mar 2019 #12
Is the new question in the age of twitter: What is a moderated site? floppyboo Mar 2019 #20
You want to be in a bubble? Do you think that is possible? Do you think that is wise? PeeJ52 Apr 2019 #27
maybe, well not maybe, there should be a forum where all tweets are posted nt msongs Mar 2019 #21
I like that idea! floppyboo Mar 2019 #23
Let DU members decide. Ptah Mar 2019 #22

great question. i hope we get an answer. k & r Kurt V. Apr 2019 #26
I'm not understanding... Do we not want to comment on what they post? Do we not want to... PeeJ52 Apr 2019 #28
Ya - that's part of what I'm talking about floppyboo Apr 2019 #29
In my opinion, that's a bad rule. It's usually enforced by mob rule... PeeJ52 Apr 2019 #30
thanks for the insights. floppyboo Apr 2019 #32
