How honest do you think people are on DU?

Do you generally take what people say here at face value?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=9717717&mesg_id=9717717

This is a research topic all in itself isn't it?

Post by: Evil_Conservative on June 22, 2011, 08:08:37 PM: Considering most of the members are moles....

Not very honest at all, since they are unable to post as themselves without being banned.

38. It actually amazes me how much people reveal about themselves here.

Not sure how much is fiction, but most of the posters with whom I am familiar seem genuine.

There's another one of those stalkers I heard about.

P. T. Barnum had DUmmies in mind when he started his sideshows. "This way to the huge Egress." :lmao:

What's your IQ? Take this test and tell us your score....

.....I scored a 115....you are a Word Warrior.

This means you have exceptional verbal skills. You can easily make sense of complex issues and take an unusually creative approach to solving problems. Your strengths also make you a visionary.

....what's your score?

35. for the most part, fairly honest...
HOWEVER, I have run across at least one who lied about EVERYTHING. At least they were interesting lies (http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/images/shrug.gif)

TomInTib perhaps?

2. Lynn The Dim

3. Melanie the death row lover

4. Horse With No Brian

Post by: Randy on June 23, 2011, 04:49:44 PM: I'm going to go a little against the grain here and throw out the opinion that DUmmies really truly believe they're honest, despite the constant overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
