DUers Continued Denial about Discouraging Trolls is DANGEROUS |
|
I'm old to this group and have been inspired by a lot I read here... but already I think the honeymoon is fading and a kind of sad reality is creeping in. I now realize that not all DUers are sincere, or willing to be honest. I guess I shouldn't have hoped for everyone on an anonymous discussion board to be upfront .... but what I'm seeing now is actually very disturbing.
Far too many DUers are in denial, or haven't been willing to do adequate research... or are listening to too much Rovian "stay home" propaganda. They still don't get that Republicans are infiltrating democratic discussion boards. It sickens me to see DUers being conned... or whatever else is going on in their heads. :eyes:
No matter what the reason, in the final analysis, this denial is dangerous. :scared: Here we are preparing to get out the vote ... and some still are not willing to face facts. This group of infiltrators is causing division and doubt... and will dilute any possibility to change our future in this county if it continues. This is a battle for our lives, and doubters will kill the battle.
I've studied politics since the 1980's and have spent thousands of hours digging and talking to others about these problems. I don't know how DU-ers and like-minded progressives are EVER going to develop a viable strategy to take this country back if a substantial portion of us don't face reality and admit there's a problem.
:sarcasm:

1. I'm not even American and I know how important it is |
|
even if the real evildoers steal it again, never give up continue protesting and organising. Fight like wildcats for the country you love. The real America.

3. Who says it's not important? |
|
No one. But a condescending post the day before the election attempting to discourage, calling DU-ers ignorant for "voting" is suspect and counter productive.
I'M VOTING AND I'M MONITORING THE POLLS. That's because I do take it seriously.

5. I'll tell you what's dangerous: |
|
Paranoia about trolls. It turns DUer against DUer.
If you think someone is a troll, click alert.
