Yes, they're back... and yes they're baiting people. Here's what you need to know...
Here are the key point:
-The absolute worst have been pardoned. Most of those were legitimate... but that doesn't matter apparently.
-Bernie supporters are being silenced at a time when pro Bernie states are coming up. We have far more supporters here than Hillary does, so naturally, this affects us disproportionately.
-They are baiting! Be very careful! If they can get a series of quick hides on you, they can put your account into FFR status (Flagged for review)... and if the admins don't like you, your account will never leave it. FFR is a way Her supporters can get you effectively tombstoned without an admin doing it.
-Understand what this really is... it's a move to strategically silence Bernie Supporters. There are those who will claim otherwise, but consider this; the admins refused to perform this very same act when Obama was the presumptive nominee in 2008. The double standard is glaring.
Be careful what you post and where you post it.
GO BERNIE!!!!

89. I don't use ignore
because I think it's important to see the place as it really is. If they let trolls run wild it says a lot about what they want the site to be. Do I really want to be at a site where people that behave that way are the preferred members?
I don't ever donate but you don't have to give them money to make them money. Just being here does that. I'm not sure I feel good about helping them make money if they are going to endorse that kind of nastiness.

110. i've been contemplating the same
I came to talk with peers about facts. The site mostly offers colour commentary on rat ****ing. Now that the money makers have reduced it to a PsyOps propaganda playhouse overrun by shills...In violation of their own rules. I feel used. You see they need the Bernie supporters as the straightman (please don't alert the term, it is not sexist or homophobic) to their vaudeville routine. The only thing that keeps me around is morbid curiousity at the moment. Looking for a reason to stay, but stench id getting quite off putting.

2. Interestingly...
I've just found out that one of "ours" hasn't apparently been given the pardon that the others have. Curious, is it not? Selective enforcement?

3. Is this a poster who was actually banned, or simply on timeout?
If the latter, that is indeed very curious.

5. you know, if we are TRULY not wanted here
by the admins, then they should just come out and tell us to take a ****ing hike. I don't think silencing people, playing stupid childish games (alerts, stalking b.s.) and such is going to do them any good. I don't care so much about the Hillary people - they are who they are and I have 90% of them on ignore anyway.
But if the admins don't want us, then they should just tell us. And if the worse thing happens and they ban me...
Life, and my big fat mouth, will go on!!!

8. membership money, I am assuming
I wanted to buy Valentine's hearts for people so they got more cash out of me.
If you're not on there, make sure you check into jackpineradicals.org. You'll see a lot of familiar faces!
Over a hundred responses on the thread. Too many to post here.

I thought the DUmmies were all in for no questions asked amnesty?

Lurking DUmmies - it behooves you to realize how irrelevant....
a) you are
b) posters, as a collective, at DU are

Dear DUmmies,
It does not matter if you vote for Stalin or Trotsky. If either wins, millions die.

9. They have to play a game that everything is open to all but trouble makers. Naturally the
definition is up for debate.
The best way to think of it is that we are poor black people in the south during the 50's. Everything is fine as long as we do not upset the man or go against their wishes (known or unknown).
What a cultural appropriating drama queen.
Also, things aren't going to be fine. Sooner or later they will get you.

This line from the OP
-Understand what this really is... it's a move to strategically silence Bernie Supporters.
is spot on correct (although I hate to give credit to a DUmmie). Skimmer knows what he's doing and when the ban hammer falls, as it did on Berniebot leader WillyT, it will somewhat clean out the sewer, although the stink will still be there.

It'll reduce the Stench of Stupid, but accentuate the Stenches of Elitism and Corruption.

Yes, they're back... and yes they're baiting people.
Who's baiting whom, DUmmy? Berniebaiters? Hillbaiters?
Or are you at home, baiting all by your lonesome?
Hmmmmmmm?

Hey hey hey, what's this?
The supporters of the worthier candidate bullying the Bernie bullies?
On what planet does this bubba primitive live?
It might be true that the primitives supporting Messalina Agrippina recently gained the upper hand on Skins's island, but they've got a l-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-n-g ways to go, to match the Bernie bullies when it comes to bullying.
In fact, I think that despite their recently having gained the upper hand on Skins's island, the primitives supporting the worthier candidate are still handing their adversaries with care and kindness.
I think they need to grind some faces into the dirt, rather than being so conciliatory.

The shitllary crew are the most obnoxious and vile lot one can ever imagine.
Crazy uncle Bernie moles will rise again! :yahoo:
