I hate the DU sucks or DU tows a certain line threads. I don't buy it. |

I've never once been warned or had my viewpoint suppressed here. I've gone so far as to tell Skinner to his face (inter-face so to speak) that I thought his analysis of the 2000 election contained significant amounts of nonsense. I have many viewpoints which would certainly fall into the unpopular category here and they've never, ever been suppressed. In fact, I think I've only ever had two posts deleted: one where I demonstrated some flaws in the security of what is allowed in a post (minor flaws in CSS allowed) and one where I was being a jerk because I intensely disliked the poster (and thus violated the rules with that post).
It's pretty damned hard to get your viewpoint suppressed around here. In fact, I think your viewpoint has to consist of "I think you're all asses" or "I like Karl Rove, you Clenis Lovers" in order to be suppressed.
DU has never been a cuddly love fest. If it was it would be boring, it would suck, and I think most of us would leave. In fact, I would say the sheer number of ever raging flame fests is a damned good indicator of how little mod intrusion there is.
What you think a democrat and a liberal are may not be what the next person thinks. If the next person disagrees with you on these, it does not mean DU sucks.

1. If I thought DU sucked or toed a specific party line that I |
|
firmly disagreed with, well then, I would not be here.
Plain and simple.
No reason to go spreading one's ill will all over the place...

If you can't take some heat, get out of the pot. (Lame, I know.) Seriously, it's got nothing to do with DU.
