Subject: Your forums
Hello,
I am more to the right than the left but enjoy a good debate. I have tried on many ocassions to make an account on your site, only to be slammed down, censored, and have my account cancelled within an hour after posting comments that cited official Fed. numbers, respected other users, and Never used off color language of any type. EVERY time, I have emailed you and asked "What did I do or say to be silenced?". You have never answered. Now, today, on your Very home page, I see the following direct quote headlining an article:
I will respond to you motherfucker. 67 recs : By lonestarnot
So much for your "posting rules". Do you think this gets you serious consideration by anyone who is Not a left wing, marxist, America hating moonbat? There is SO MUCH HATE on your site, it absolutely OOZES out. A great majority of your posters have literally 1,000's of comments, a great many of them just hate filled, cursing rants against any and all who hold a different viewpoint.
Just wanted you to know how LOW you have fallen and how LITTLE you matter.
Subject: What no free speech? Sorry, forgot this is a LIBERAL site. of course not

Subject: You decision to revoke my posting privilege is MORAL COWARDICE. LSTEN to your PEERS.
I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT IF THEY WERE ABLE, MOST AMERICANS WILL say exactly what I am saying.
I know that is FACT. What I say is not MEANT TO HURT GOOD PEOPLE.
YOU ALREADY KNOW THIS. THAT IS NOT WHY MY ACCOUNT WAS REVOKED.

On these issues I DO NOT, YOUR ADVICE, I SEE THE PROBLEMS FOR WHAT THEY ARE, OTHERS REFUSE TO.
Reinstate my account..NOW please. NEXT HERE IN AMERICA WILL BE THE VIOLENCE IN SAY CHICAGO TODAY, RIGHT NOW, ALL OVER THE COUNTRY .THAT IS WHERE IT GOES. PERIOD.

LISTEN: TO WHAT YOUR PEER, AND MY PEER, JUST SAID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAKE UP.
Subject: (no subject)
Why was I blocked? You get to "voice" your opinions. I have everything cut and pasted to go viral. If you pussies can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen. This shows how pathetic you are.
Subject: signed you up for some timeshares
You stupid mother fuckers. Asking people to attack another group you happen to disagree with.
Subject: donations
I was going to donate to your organization but thank God I didn't. After reading your forums further I came across the following thread: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x9256458
What a hateful bunch you all are! Vanity, hatred or holding a chip on your shoulders serves no logical sense in any moral society. You all sound like a bunch of juvenile bitter delinquents who enjoy making others feel bad. Your incapable of forgiving, loving and behaving like civil human beings and the above thread is more than enough proof of that. My God grow up already!! It's pathetic you consider yourselves professionals in your line of work and what's worse some of you are parents! You should be ashamed of yourselves.
Subject: Co-Coward
Typical liberal spew limitless vial hatred as long as it's at the right person. But in realty your just a thin skinned coward.

It was hard to decide but I like this one because he attempts to reason but doesn't understand the irony of why HE WANTS to be surrounded by "SO MUCH HATE" , whining about why he can't be near it and then summarily dismissing us. Maybe he'll learn something when he's here reading all this hate, like, I don't know....maybe that a woman's naughty nether regions are not magical rape-rejectors. LOL
The reason I come to DU is to avoid the Republican hate (and profound stupidity) found on other websites like Huff Post. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I am thankful DU holds a higher standard.
Post a DU warning that states: "You must have an I.Q. over 70 to ride on D.U."

OldEurope
(1,273 posts)I'm often disgusted by the ads about dating young women from China, Poland, Vietnam or elsewhere. I am a heterosexual elderly woman from Germany*, and I really, really never did any Google-search for things like this. Some ads occuring at DU can be related to my former searches, but most of them do not. Most of the time I'm only lurking in here as I do not have to say anything important for you, and I had difficulties contributing because I don't have a creditcard. So I see all the ads and some of them are really disgusting. For example you get happy-tourist-adds for cities or countries where a catastrophy just occured. You get said ads for "dating" young women when you have words like sex, intercourse or such in the text you are reading. You also get these adds if the google engine just cannot find anything else to offer. So if I did not search anything before looking at DU I have to see the adds of those who pay Google the highest price.
I really like DU, but seriously: the complaint about the adds of that guy in #2 should be considered other than ridiculous.
*Sorry for my English
Edited to add: my husband has his own computer
pinboy3niner
(53,339 posts)Ads here are generated from outside and DU has little control over that. I think if an and is especially objectionable, DU can request that it be blocked. But generally, the ad content--even GOP ads that appear here--is beyond the control of DU.
There are ways to block the ads on some computer operating systems. Perhaps your husband knows about that on his computer.

I'm well aware that DU cannot influence the ads.
This poll is about the unbelievable idiocy of some republican morons, isn't it? That hatemail #2 surely is disgusting in wording and in spewing hate. But that guy has IMO a point in his criticism. Many here on DU are again and again blasting Republicans for their misogyny and their war on women. And at the same time everyone here who has no possibility to block the ads (or doesn't want to) gets ads with sexy images of young women as if they were some article in a mail order catalogue. The ads are indicating that you can buy those women for your personal use (like "Young Thai (Brazilian, Polish, you name it) girls want to marry an American" They pop up the more often the more you read texts about the war on women or abortion or any other subject that is concerning women.
This is also some sort of hypocrisy, isn't it?
We old fighters against male predominance are happy about every man that can realize how these ads are damaging the self-esteem and pride of young women. So I think that guy should not be made fun of.

(38,322 posts)The raciest one I got was Snorgtees, a woman wearing white underpants and a teeshirt that says "meh."
And a Koch vs. EPA Sierra Club banner, an ad for eyeglasses (why yes, I do wear eyeglasses), a solar ad, ads for power tools, and ads for web publishing tools. I kept clicking and finally google ads had me figured out! I'm a Muslim and they treated me to photos of pretty Muslim women looking for husbands! And, oh my, yes, three of these women were not covering their hair!!!
(Not a fair test, of course. I use an entirely different browser for tumblr and other miscellaneous porn...)
But I don't think you have to go far to see ads for "friends" in your own neighborhood.
When I logged back into DU and clicked the link in "YEAH, SURE YOU WERE GOING TO DONATE." I saw a "We don't like young men! We want You!" ad. How'd that happen? Are these older women looking for women who like power tools, or older men? I don't know.
Personally, I thought the "viral" hate mail was funniest. Who is he planning to infect? What sort of cut and paste job was he planning?

Charitably, let's assume that the wingnuts were feeling a bit lethargic because of the heat (heat that had nothing to do with any climate change, of course). After Labor Day, when the air is crisp and clear, they'll move back into their full wild-eyed form.

(4,253 posts)It reminded me of the voice mail left on my company phone years ago. The guy who left the message had said fuck 35 times in various sentences. He also called me a Pennsylvania whore. He got the wrong state as I was born in NJ. LOL
The funniest thing though was before I got to hear the message the next day, I found that it made the rounds of many, many other company phones in all the departments. The message had been left on the department general line as I was not in and one of the weekend staff picked it up and forwarded it to one friend, who passed it on and there you go. Just about the whole company heard it.
I worked in the fraud department of a national corporation and my job was to cut off the fraudsters fraudulent phone lines after determining they were set up fraudulently.
One sales department guy told my co-worker in my department after he had heard the message that we must have dangerous job. There are a lot of nuts out there for sure and ones who also commit crimes.
So we can laugh at these messages but there may be a deranged dangerous person sending them to us. You can't be sure.

Oh sure,if you agree with their delusions of grandeur they hold up as holy virtue then they are lovey-dovey.
But the minute you deviate from the talking points which they have helped spread for the past 32 years then you are every thing but a rich,white,christian male and need to be driven from the herd.
It's Ironic then that they would come here and expect the red carpet treatment for showing us sinners the err of our ways,using hateful and hurtful language that would make a sailor blush,but which is not tolerated in their blathersphere.
I feel that now looking back,visiting the rape-ublican opinion sites has changed me for the better,their ignorant self congratulating piety and unctuousness frequently threatened my cranial aneurism.
I believe that hurricane katrina was the turning point.
Up till then,i thought these people were just misinformed.
Now i think that they have given away their souls in trade for false values from a false god.
Three things motivate these people,greed,hate,and loyalty to the other two motivators.
I wish i could go back and feel the way that i did before,like when i used to mistakenly believe that they were in fact human.
Instead i believe more than ever that Darwin was right and that there really is such a thing as a large brained primate.
Sadly,they walk among us.
I don't hate them any more than i can hate a dog for licking his own balls,which pretty much sums up Freepers and their brethren.
I just don't get my blood pressure up,which my doctor is very relieved about and so now i am not on blood thinners anymore.
I usually do love the hatemail though,keep 'em coming.
