Related: About this forumSomeone in the cave is whining about being
blocked from this group. So I thought I would just provide an update to the current statuses of our respective groups.
Theirs:
Number of subscribers: 411
Number of people trashing: 432
Number of people blocked: 877
Ours:
Number of subscribers: 1046
Number of people trashing: 183
Number of people blocked: 364
That contrast alone speaks volumes to me.

(45,251 posts)who have posted in this group; (2) the length of time this group has existed; and (3) the number of OPs in this group.
Many on this board weirdly have pretended to be supporters of Sanders. Some still are pretending. I know of not a single Sanders supporter who has pretended to be a Hillary supporter.
Bottom line: The hosts of this group are great.

(19,926 posts)I remember checking that out when I wrote my post in there calling them on their complete bullshit, here's the relevant part:
In the entire first page of posts in the Bernie group you don't find anything similar at all, they are all about Bernie himself, or something to do with him, but certainly not about Hillary supporters.
A couple weeks ago (I think around then) there was a negative post about Hillary supporters and it was locked and self-deleted and several Bernie supporters, myself included, asked in the OP (and I sent a pm to a host asking for the OP to be deleted/locked) to not do that. As I said, the OP was locked and self-deleted.
I realize the whole Bernie supporters are mean and childish is the new thing on DU, but we are not plotting as a group against Hillary supporters like this OP is. And when there was a negative post about Hillary supporters it was taken down due to the dislike of it, it was not cheered on as this OP is, or the one about Ghadaffi is. We aren't looking at this as a war between supporters as this group seems to based on these two well regarded OPs.

(1,166 posts)but I'm kind of an outlier as I'm pretty new and not that familiar with the "politics" of this site so I decided not to. Glad you did because now I know the term "the cave." Perfect. From what I've seen on here, it is the opposite of what that HRC person is complaining about. Daily I'm reminded of the "war is peace" thing in "1984." Surreal.
