http://www.democraticunderground.com/110710523Oh my.
And it's about time, too, considering all the pain and grief they've had to take, from the primitives supporting that one other guy.

Just trashed/Ignored keyword "Bernie". HAAha Works just like one of those backyard bug zappers.
Du is beautiful & friendly & backyard bug free.
Customize your DU.
Makes you realize all those important daily newsworthy Posts, represent what DU has always been about.
Cleaned up nicely.

1. I trashed GD-P
Suddenly much quieter around here. I've also increased my ignore list considerably.

4. Yes Trashing GDP was the most amazing experience, suddenly Newsworthy Posts were available
Great thing is if you really miss the GDP or "Bernie" posts you can always bring them back. Great DU tool.
But I doubt I'll ever miss them.
I can check GDP before I log in if I need to be reminded of how ugly & disrespectable those threads were.
I did notice the rec & reply count on the hate posts has tanked since being corralled into a particular Forum.
What used to be 100+ is now around 25.
Oh well, just glad as heck to have reasonable responders back in the front pages of DU.
Can't thank the Admin enough.
I can breath.
BTW Hillary raised over a million $$ at the Virginia Fundraiser, and that is what the Democratic Party does for each other.
Same way Emily's List does it. Fundraise to replace the GOP with powerful Democratic women in our law making body.
Democrats take care of each other & will campaign to replace the GOP with strong & loyal Dems.
2016
(and she's got some very long coattails to change the power structure of the Senate & perhaps a bit in the House.
Kudos to one amazing , bright woman & her masterful Team.)
It is America's good fortune to have such an accomplished wise leader, Sec of State & First Lady Hillary Clinton, step up to lead.
Actually, if someone in authority on Skins's island were simply to shove all threads mentioning Barney Fif--er, Sanders, into the Barney Sanders forum, it'd clean up things a great deal. As it is now, with all the Barney threads scattered all over, any rational discussion about Democrat chances in 2016 is impossible.

2. Cool
I'll do that. Seriously, if I see a BS supporter write a post that does not degenerate into a snit about Hillary, I will go buy a lottery ticket.
"BS supporter"--how appropriate.
And then oh geezuz, we get this:

3. I hate icky thoughts, too
I just close my eyes and plug my ears and scream "la, la, la" until all the bad thoughts go away.
Please tell me you're joking and in actuality possess the maturity beyond that of a 12 year old.
I wouldn't change that opinion no matter who someone was taking delight in ignoring - do you really think it's intelligent to not be equipped to debate something from all sides? To wall yourself off from an alternate view?
No better than the right wing conservatives who do the same thing.

REASON FOR ALERT
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
I am not 12. I am posting in the Hillary Forum. And I am not walling myself off from an alternate view. Nor am I unequipped to debate from all sides.
I prefer to also read the many other great news posts presented on DU & am thus very grateful for GD Primaries. That there is a forum for those who wish to engage in such banter.
And I have a DU right to Trash/Ignore what I wish without being called names, demeaned for doing so. This is the Hillary Forum afterall. We share much in this safe room.
Thanks

11. I blocked that person
One post in the last 90 days... 25 total posts and registered in 2008.
Very fishy.

12. Stank like stale fish from 2008.
I suppose suddenly being Trashed & Ignored kinda sucks.

19. Even if it is just for awhile use the trash function.
It helps.
misterhighwasted (3,489 posts) Mon Jun 29, 2015, 12:17 PM
20. Yes try it. Have you noticed the variety of newsworthy posts in Latest Threads today??
We missed so much news before GDP, & when I finally just began using the great Trash tool, I am spending way more time here.
DU is once again my go-to site.
Pretty cool. Wish I had used the tools DU provides, a long time ago.
Uh huh.
If all the threads about Barney were redirected into the forum specifically for him, the rest of Skins's island looks neater, cleaner, and spiffier.
<<<is not the wasted primitive.
