What am I missing??

If DU is so insignificant, why do you post here?

I read the NY Times almost every day. I read the Washington Post. I read the Progressive. I read The Nation. I read the Huffington Post. I read Thinkprogress. I read a lot.

But the best thinkers I have found are right here on DU. They may be profane at times. They may be ridiculous at times. But sometimes they are very enlightening and intelligent. There are many good writers and thinkers here.

So why do some folks talk and act as if DU is meaningless? All those other places are important but DU is nothing? Can someone explain?
