DU: In the beginning.
I have been on DU since the beginning but did not sign up officially until about March of 2001. Skinner and Earl were advertising for "writers". I posted about once a week under my real name. At that time, if you posted on DU, it might stay on the front page for a week or longer. There were not that many people posting on DU. But there were some memorable ones!

There was a small army of DUers that felt threatened and fearful for the future. They had to speak out. They had to talk to someone. DU was the best place to spread the word at that time. I don't know how much impact we had but I like to think that we had some. We tried to give people hope.

Nowadays, your post may disappear in a matter of minutes. The population of "writers" has grown immensely. I don't know how much longer I will be here but I want everyone to know that I appreciate their input and opinions. You never know who you may be speaking to...

Well, I for one get my daily LOLs here. Keep up the great work !

And now, 16 years later, those who have not died of natural causes, left of their own accord, or got banned are posting the same stupid groundless fears.

As begging for attention goes, that was cringingly pathetic.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Life is tough and it’s even tougher when you’re stupid

Basking in the glow of my white Privilege, while I water the Begonias with liberal tears!

I will give up my guns when the liberals give up their illegal aliens

We need a Bull Shit tax to make the Democrats go broke!

Is he dying?  Going to join the Omaha Lardass in the great Socialist Society in the Sky?

Let us hope.
Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.
