Could use some actual positive discussion on this:

Lots of people who--let's just say they are not the type of person who lives in public housing in Harlem--are in there trashing it while pretending to be progressives.

1. Such dicks

It's like beating your head against the wall trying to engage certain people in positive discussions

[geek tragedy]

2. that's why I stopped being a Sanders supporter

I realized that was the kind of person behind their J. Crew movement.

Any movement that attracted people like that, not for me.

3. Ugh ... I went into GD-P for

that link and still feel slimed. I gave you a Rec, but will not comment in GD-P.

I also added more names to my ever-growing Ignore List, however. I just don't care to put up with SBS supporter B***S*** The many supporters who are courteous are fine. But I don't need those who aren't in my life in any way, shape or form.

I did note one new term: "Hillaverse" thatr I suppose is meant to be ignoble. However, I can infer that its synonym is actually "real life" and thus am proud to be in the reality-based world rather than in the fantasy version some SBS supporters believe in.

And yes, I believe that Hillary means what she says about working for low income housing residents and will do her best to carry through with her words. Unlike her opponent who talks a lot and does little, e.g., he promised to release his tax returns today and still hasn't even managed to do that very simple thing.

5. I had to put every one of them on ignore.

You can see now why they hated Dolores Huerta so much.

4. You might be amused at mine

[geek tragedy]

6. saw your response, thanks.

I innocently thought Sanders supporters would come in there and talk about the issue of housing for the urban poor.

Boy was I wrong.

8. They keep saying we won't discuss the facts when they invent their own facts

To me this primary is over. It is a long slow end Bernie folks are making for themselves.

[geek tragedy]

9. they don't care about facts, or issues.

they're fans, not activists

[BlueCaliDem]

17. BINGO. That's why it's futile to even have a discussion with any of them.

Waste. Of. Time.

[DemonGoddess]

7. you are brave geek

for going into that cesspool of a forum.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

10. But they SWEAR up and down that they aren't bigots. Please...

[lunamagica]

11. Lawrence O'Donnell said a few nights ago that all candidates had been invited to see the conditions

of public housing in Harlem. None of the candidates had responded to the invitation.

Today, Hillary accepted the invitation and went. I hope he covers the visit on his show tonight

[2naSalit]

13. Me too...

I am glad she is going, not that she hasn't seen low income housing before, even if it's been a while, it's not like anything has changed for the better in all this time.

[2naSalit]

12. Trashed that group/forum

months ago and I find it disturbing that they sneak their BS stuff into other places like LBN and V&M. I do my best to avoid them.

[ismnotwasm]

14. I commented

I lived in public housing in Seattle for quite some time--not the same as Harlem, but I do know what living in one feels like.

[2naSalit]

15. I gave a fw responses to stupid posts but

you can't fix stupid and you can't cure ignorance by choice.

[Cha]

16. Yeah, I bet they are.. if bernie were doing it instead of flying to get a photo op with the Pope

they'd be praising it to the hilt.

But, as it is.. it's Hillary!

Thank you, geek.
