voted for Bernie. To say you are sad he isn't the nominee in no way undermines Hillary. Bernie is certainly sad he isn't the nominee. Isn't keeping him from supporting Hillary. The poster didn't break the TOS. But, I tell you what, if you think it is a violation, then alert on it, and mine. And, if the posts are removed, and then I lose an appeal of it, and I learn that expressing sadness that Bernie is not our nominee is a violation, I will delete my account and never show up here again.

Why should it be removed. The post says nothing rateyes Jul 2016 #5

The TOS states: auntpurl Jul 2016 #6

Bullshit. Half the people on this site, if not more, rateyes Jul 2016 #7

I'm not going to alert because while I do believe it's a TOS violation auntpurl Jul 2016 #12

Ok. Whatever. rateyes Jul 2016 #14

Exactly! rateyes Jul 2016 #33

Oh, and why put the word "democratic" in all caps? rateyes Jul 2016 #9

No, I capitalised it because it's in the NAME of the freaking WEBSITE. nt auntpurl Jul 2016 #11

The applicable ToS is "Don't keep fighting the primaries". . . Except Bernardo de La Paz Jul 2016 #15

That is my point, exactly! rateyes Jul 2016 #16

Are threats and condescension really the way to try to bring supporters in? Your sig line FailureToCommunicate Jul 2016 #18

I neither threatened nor condescended. auntpurl Jul 2016 #20

Saying that poster should remove his comment or it would be alerted sounds like FailureToCommunicate Jul 2016 #28

AuntPurl's sig line suggests threat and condescension? Hortensis Jul 2016 #25

No, I was suggesting her sig line indicated just the opposite: an appeal to keep thing civil. FailureToCommunicate Jul 2016 #29

Sorry for not reading more carefully. I've been misunderstood also. Hortensis Jul 2016 #30
