Without pointing any fingers, I am compelled to note that several posters seem to have adopted
the tactic of tossing totally unsupported accusations or, perhaps more accurately, thinly-veiled "suggestions", about people with whom they disagree or of whom they disapprove. "I'll bet those guys didn't vote for Hillary" or "They must be Republicans because no real Democrat would say what they said or do what they did!"

Those are not actual quotes, but they accurately represent what I'm talking about. This type of lazy knee-jerk response is an admission that the poster really has nothing to contribute to the discussion but desperately wants to criticize the people others seem to be upset with. It is an ignorant technique used regularly by Trump and one we should call out and disdain.

Please don't press me for actual examples. My purpose is to improve our discussions, not start fires. If you think I'm wrong about the above,-----ok, ignore this post. If you recognize what I am describing, deal with it as you see fit. I intend to stop responding to repeat offenders.

3. They bullied a low-count poster off the board a few days ago.

It was terrible to see someone pop in for some discussion, and be so horrified by the way people jumped on her that she deactivated her account within a few hours. There was nothing trollish or suspicious about anything she posted.

7. You're not wrong

there was a recent new member that identified herself upfront as an independent and she really was harassed. I thought she had some good comments. BTW...she's still a member.

17. Well, since this site is expressly for members of the Democratic Party

Coming here and identifying as an independent is a sure fire way to get scorched. She should have been hidden.

This is a place for democrats.

11. Remember the Primary & GE 2015/16 ??

I hear it was brutally biased in favor of one & got to the point where one group was barely allowed on board .

They are still here doing the same thing.

20. Hear that? But you know They are still here doing the same thing

You sure you have not been here before? Cause I am really trying to get my head around the fact you know ‘They are still here doing the same thing’ if you have only been here a few months.

Cause I sure as shit can’t tell you what was happening here months before I joined.

Or is there a secret ‘DU history’ link I am not privy to?

Have a nice evening.

12. Yes! We should never remind folks that Russian troll posters are gearing up

to sway the 2018 elections by posting divisive non-sense on public forums - it's not as if doing stuff like this suppresses the vote, after all!

Oh please let it be true.  I so love when the ingrates get to fighting between themselves.  It reminds me of Medieval Europe and their many fiefdoms trying to control each other.  Oh the Joy.

I see they've either forgotten or are conveniently ignoring how DU drove Elizabeth Edwards off when she was briefly a member there.

Not self-deleted. Perchance is Asshole-icus also on time-out for truth-telling?

My compliments to the moles who stoked that fire.  These self identified geniuses make it so easy.
