Title: Omaha Steve Looking for Attention
Post by: BamaMoose on March 16, 2022, 07:24:45 PM
First he puts up a poll on whether or not a graphic he posted reflects badly on DU because of it's use of foul language.  Apparently, he's unaware that of all the things that reflect badly on DU, foul language is the least of their worries.

I need your opinion (trigger warning for language)

Most of you know I rarely swear on the DU. I received some feedback on our DU Ukraine page. I have a salute to the Ukrainians that told the Russians to F off. Should I replace that graphic on our "OFFICIAL" DU page?

Here is the page: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/duforukraine  (https://secure.actblue.com/donate/duforukraine)

OS

<Poll Snipped but the DUmmies overwhelmingly approve of the foul language>

The "trigger warning" is absolutely precious.  Unfortunately his attempt at attention-whoring didn't get a whole lot of responses so, of course, he tried to perform CPR on it:

17. A new day

I wonder if the Monday crowd will reply on this? 

But, after only 19 responses (3 by Steve), the thread died.

He's so disappointed that he didn't get proper adulation, that he started a new thread to point out the other thread.

The end of a DU controversy? Maybe (trigger warning language)

Many of you took the time to answer my poll over the weekend: https://www.democraticunderground.com/100216477809  (https://www.democraticunderground.com/100216477809)

Over 90% said to leave the site as it was. Today I took the offending flag with the F word off the page.

Here is the result: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/duforukraine  (https://secure.actblue.com/donate/duforukraine)

I hope this ends the controversy while keeping the spirit of the Ukrainian people! 

OS 

Oh my, the controversy.  It was just insane. :panic:  Steve, you're so edgy and fringe.  Too bad the general public might be offended by your intensity.  Certainly, this thread will take off, because this controversy was splitting DU asunder.  Two hours later he had to try to calm the masses and tamp out the firestorm he'd created.

1. I expected some kind of reply by now

That was the last reply.  Fortunately, it saved DU from breaking down into chaos.

So I'll give Steve what he was really looking for.  Here's a cheers :cheersmate: for creating the fundraiser.  Now go get me some mini-tacos you fat waste of oxygen.

What percentage of Queen of Meme kpete's memes do not have foul language? Probably a majority, but ....

I'll take the bait by fixing Steve Dawes' post for accuracy:

I'm not dead!

CART MASTER: 'Ere. He says he's not dead!

CUSTOMER: Yes, he is.

DEAD PERSON: I'm not!

CART MASTER: He isn't?

CUSTOMER: Well, he will be soon. He's very ill.

DEAD PERSON: I'm getting better!

CUSTOMER: No, you're not. You'll be stone dead in a moment.

He says donations are fully tax deductible but that is unlikely if he did not set up a 503c Corporation
