Barack Obama
In reply to the discussion: It's hard to be a supporter of the President around here [View all]freshwest
(53,661 posts)21. Exactly. The Ratfucking is out of control. I'd copied the OP you deleted. There are far worse posts
being made right now on DU.
And that's not even from those who rec'd the tombstoned BBI and were listed as the tombstoned Will Twain's heroes. There are a ton of newbies who smell blood in the water and spew the vilest characterizations of Obama.
Then there are more 'Be nicer to the GOP' posts, from people who have been here long enough to know better. That along with those who sing Obama's praises for having helped them. But say they won't vote if a person they hate gets the nomination. Thus saying, 'I got mine, if the GOP eviscerates the ACA more than they have, screwing the poor, I got mine.'
That sort of stuff is beneath the contempt of the compassionate people I know as Democrats in real life. We've got a very large anti-Demcratic Party mob who've been ratfucked for years and refuse to admit they may be off, they love their own egos and show it in their vile accusations.
This is full-on hatred of Dems and our ideas here, using old themes that no longer fit the real world. So, yeah, you are not alone.
All of the worst predicted will occur in 2016, and many will die. But not the ones who are so proud right now. No, they are not in the same boat as the rest of us. They're willing to let that boat sink as they figure they have found a yacht to sail on. They won't be hurting, some have said as much.
They will not regret one thing if the GOP gets the White House in 2016 and undoes all that Obama has done for civli rights and the poor, and go to war. They will go with the flow, same as they have on these issues all along, and are having a great time now, they see the end of their obstacles to getting more for themselves.
I don't blame you for taking a break. A website with the user friendly features that Skinner and the crew created, is now working actively against the stated mission of the website. It was inevitable it would be taken over by trolls, and many have been here for years. The first years of DU had more trolls than Democrats posting.
And they're invigorated in their lust for our destruction. Repeat a lie or distortion often enough, and the purveyor wins. We're watching that before our eyes. You will NEVER get through to them. They are as well indoctrinated as Tea Partiers.
I suspect a number of people reading this place want to commit suicide from what is posted here. It makes them lose all hope for democratic government and the world in general. It's not good for one's mental and physical health.
I come here for the news only. I will not participate in the fecal matter that is being posted here. Take a break, I advise it. But you will be missed!
