23. Do you not remember Andy Stephenson at all? I believe that Diebold is |
|
stealing democracy out from under us, but Bev is the kind of thing people hire you to clean up--or worse.

|
It was interesting to re-read all the BBV/DU brouhaha that happened. I also wonder what's happened to some of the more prolific posters from 2003-2004 who seem to have dropped off DU's radar.
Bit of a validation for me to see that many of the posters I currently admire were on (what I believe to be) the correct side of the dispute.
And I'd completely forgotten about TinFoilHatProgrammer-- our (then) resident Diebold employee(?) who always had a kind word to say about e-voting.
I'll be the first to admit that I had bought into Bev's story from the beginning. It took me a while, but I got better... :)
(Thanks to Kelvin Mace for the OP/repost and to you for the re-re-post...)

5. Would could ever forget Bev Harris? And the few that came after Bev |
|
to prey on DUer's for a hand out.
Will those few stand and be counted? I didn't think so!

7. Thank you Kelvin Mace for reminding us about some folks that |
|
use DU for their own agenda, to victimize and make a profit at someone else's expense. Those hard luck stories that involve children, hospital and health and livelihood are just a little to much, 'eh?

..but election fraud is real. That self-aggrandizing asshole makes it a lot harder for the rest of us to do our work.

I think her goal is to prevent real change. If that isn't her objective, she couldn't accomplish it more effectively than if it was.

22. I was shocked last week |
|
when someone posted an article from her here on DU. No one seemed to be upset.
I questioned the poster, but got no reply.
For anyone that was not here during the Bev wars, please know that Bev Harris was banned from this site twice. She threatened to sue Skinner!
But what she did to Andy Stephenson was unforgivable. I hate her w/the heat of a thousand suns.
Thank you for posting this reminder, madinmaryland.

30. Sadly I do remember her many sock puppets |
|
Was it "Bailey" that came in exalting Queen Bev, while knowing bev's most innermost thoughts and writing in the same style and using the same words as bev? (After bev was banned for the second time.)
Just one of many.

33. a large number of DU registrants came long after the Bev *show* |

thanks for giving some background to the many who are not familiar of her history here and her behavior toward other activists, and her particular callousness (bordering on, or crossing into) maliciousness toward Andy.

I'd even say she hastened his death just to further her own sociopathic ends.

40. AFAIK, Electronic Frontier Foundation and Verified Voting are both reputable |
|
I just wrote checks to each of them as part of my two dozen New Year contributions -- seeing as how I didn't manage to get everything done as my End of the Old Year contributions.
They also take donations online, just like everyone else.
As for the thread actually praising Bev Harris -- it's a damn good thing there's some institutional memory here at DU.

She is a vile, soulless creature who seems never to quite go away completely. I hope she reads EVERY adjective used to describe her.

that scum sucking, filthy, greedy, lying grifter. She deserves so much more than mere words flung at her.
A DUer is giving me hell for saying nasty things about her in LBN. But I will not relent.
Soon after she 1st appeared here, those little hairs at the back of my neck were standing on end, screaming Danger, Will Robinson, Danger! My confirmation of what she was, was when she attacked DEMActivist and got them both banned.
