The Negativity On This Forum Is By FAR BIASED AGAINST HILLARY And I Have Quantitative Evidence. [View All]

[musicblind]

When someone on here mentions to the hardcore Obama supporters that it seems like they are saying many more negative things about Clinton than Clinton Supporters are saying about them... Obama supporters deny it. They say things such as "We have one post for every "cult" post out there. Now, granted, the cult posts are stupid. I think all of this fighting on both sides is silly.

But here are the facts.

I decided to test this theory that the hate was equal. So I took a snap shot of the first page of the GD-P threads at 10:54 pm. This is just to see... I located:

24 negative Hillary Threads. (These were not counting threads that merely discussed Hillary or Obama in a neutral light)

12 negative Obama Threads (These were not counting threads that merely discussed Hillary or Obama in a neutral light)

In fact I did not even count threads such as "I like Hillary but have major fears about her campaign". I counted threads that were posted with a negative purpose or propaganda against that candidate. As it turns out Hillary has TWICE as many attacks on here at 10:54 pm than does Obama.

I will try and take another sample at another random time to see if this continues to hold up. Feel free to count for yourself. This is not in someone's "head". Obama supporters are being much more aggressive towards Hillary's supporters on the DU message boards according to this random sample.

If this holds up then I think Obama supporters should consider re-evaluating their claims of victimization, and try and extend the first olive branch ... because their negativity seems to currently be in the majority, at least as far as the angry thread post count indicates.
