In reply to the discussion: Maybe we should have a "I don't like Hillary" group [View all]H2O Man
(73,559 posts)I always respect your opinion. And even while I see things differently in this situation, I value your perspective .....enough so, that I will keep that in mind while reading, and participating, in discussions on DU:GD about Hillary Clinton.
Both the pro- and anti-Clinton groups of people have a few very obnoxious folks. These people add little to nothing of real value in the discussions of the 2016 presidential election.
Likewise, both groups have more intelligent, open-minded members, who provide insightful comments that are a pleasure to read.
However, in my opinion, the pro-Clinton people have a somewhat organized sub-group that engages in coordinated attacks on those who are either opposed to Hillary Clinton, or who raise some concerns about her candidacy. They remind me of cluster flies. They have rehearsed attacks, often rather personal, that they unleash upon those who do not agree with them. And they avoid responding directly to people's sincere concerns.
Again, I recognize you as being an intelligent, valuable advocate for Ms. Clinton. Your posts do not come across as bitter or mean-spirited. But, as an "undecided," I find the pro-Clinton folks more likely to try to create discomfort for others, and indeed, to try to silence dissent.
