It gives me a sick feeling in my stomach like I'm choosing the less enlightened path by even feeling the emotions of anger I feel when I read their posts. Whatever the case, I'm really proud of all of you here for keeping this thing we've got going alive. It's a real movement as long as we allow it to be

I was released the day before the big pardon. floriduck Mar 2016 #48

I think many of us are backing away and staying away from some places entirely. DhhD Mar 2016 #121

WTH happened to Cali? Kittycat Mar 2016 #68

FFRd but I don't know what it was for dorkzilla Mar 2016 #72

I'm sure you're right dorkzilla Mar 2016 #66

Cali? merrily Mar 2016 #27

Nope dorkzilla Mar 2016 #29

Only 3 posts hidden in the last 90 days and flagged for review? Is that customary? merrily Mar 2016 #34

I don't think so, and the review is only supposed to be 24 hours anyway dorkzilla Mar 2016 #43

Any chance it's an oversight? Should we post in ATA? merrily Mar 2016 #47

See response #48 dorkzilla Mar 2016 #50

Well the 'owner' is... supporting--- you know who. pangaia Mar 2016 #77

They don't want our voices demwing Mar 2016 #128

Didn't Skinner's announcement yesterday say no one would be put in Timeout until the Primaries are in_cog_ni_to Mar 2016 #13

FFRs are still in effect. Timeouts are completely different. Bubzer Mar 2016 #16

Oh. how does a post get FFR? in_cog_ni_to Mar 2016 #21

You're correct... it happens automatically after a series of very quick hides. Bubzer Mar 2016 #24

I see. That's what happened to me 2 weeks ago. in_cog_ni_to Mar 2016 #32

Same thing happened to me ALittleBirdie Mar 2016 #102

I know. in_cog_ni_to Mar 2016 #106

As a new DUer, you have to be extremely careful senz Mar 2016 #112

Thanks for your recommendations, I'll be careful ALittleBirdie Mar 2016 #119

Happened to me late last year, took almost 3 weeks for the 3 'day' review to happen peacebird Mar 2016 #99

It's as if they think the dominant candidate on DU will win the GE Rebkeh Mar 2016 #14

It's an effort to depress the vote. Now more than ever, they need to convince people he cant win. Bubzer Mar 2016 #17

So, to get us to not vote at all if we don't conform Rebkeh Mar 2016 #23

Spot on malokvale77 Mar 2016 #75

I cannot tell you how much it irked me that the a bonus was the selling point on that. Bubzer Mar 2016 #105

They already have their own clubhouse, in_cog_ni_to Mar 2016 #25

Seriously??? Rebkeh Mar 2016 #30

Heh...you should see their OTHER site dorkzilla Mar 2016 #33

LOL. Yes, it does. polly7 Mar 2016 #63

Even worse...have you seen dorkzilla Mar 2016 #70

Yes I have, and it is fucking sick. There are a lot of people who seem to polly7 Mar 2016 #73

You really should expose this beyond the Bernie Group on DU. malletgirl02 Mar 2016 #126

Wow, that was eye-opening. coyote Mar 2016 #100

That is vile arikara Mar 2016 #114

Seriously. in_cog_ni_to Mar 2016 #35

It's odd. They post about how we are organized to get their posts hidden, merrily Mar 2016 #31

And if we were going to organize, YOU of all people would know it dorkzilla Mar 2016 #39

ME of all people? LOL! Why me? merrily Mar 2016 #42

Cause you're our hero and guiding light dorkzilla Mar 2016 #49

I had no idea. I deny everything, including sanity. merrily Mar 2016 #51

You're so sane it's a thing of beauty dorkzilla Mar 2016 #53

Aww, that's so nice! Part of my insanity is the diabolical ability to fake sanity. merrily Mar 2016 #55

Me either! in_cog_ni_to Mar 2016 #40

Wanna form a Gang of Two Outcasts? GTO? merrily Mar 2016 #44

I'm in! in_cog_ni_to Mar 2016 #54

Cool. What shall we plot and whom shall we plot against? merrily Mar 2016 #57

Good question! in_cog_ni_to Mar 2016 #67

Good point. Plotting probably works better if you don't do it on the board. merrily Mar 2016 #69

Maybe you two could start by targeting the Gardening group, and work your way up. Jim Lane Mar 2016 #97

Yuck! Why did I have to go and look at that site?! My eyes are burning! Ned_Devine Mar 2016 #45

they hid the worst stuff after people started posting screen caps here. merrily Mar 2016 #52

Those secret handshakes can be pretty tricky to master Art_from_Ark Mar 2016 #78

At least one Bernie supporter managed it. Not sure how. Don't really care. merrily Mar 2016 #80

This really needs exposure beyond the Bernie Group on DU. malletgirl02 Mar 2016 #125

It was exposed in GDP the day the site went live. in_cog_ni_to Mar 2016 #127

I was referring to media exposure. malletgirl02 Mar 2016 #130

The corrupt corporate owned MSM doesn't care what the Clinton camp does...they are shills in_cog_ni_to Mar 2016 #132

For some reason they really do want to force their candidate through. senz Mar 2016 #113

I hadn't thought of that Rebkeh Mar 2016 #115

It seems unlikely to you that Hillary represents the establishment? senz Mar 2016 #116

Skinner's wife is working for Hillary's campaign riderinthestorm Mar 2016 #122

So, probably this "amnesty" thing is part of a larger scheme senz Mar 2016 #123

Skinner has been unabashedly for Clinton since she announced riderinthestorm Mar 2016 #124

Interesting. I had not put 2+2 together. Of course DU wants the Hills folks back to shout us down peacebird Mar 2016 #56

I wanted the star so I had a better chance of being on juries alcina Mar 2016 #88

Put them on ignore or deflect it. Kittycat Mar 2016 #62
