Just when I think I've read it all...

Now Bernie supporters "hate democracy". And when someone points out that cheating was occurring in NV, the response is, "Why do you hate democracy?".

Yesterday it was stating Bernie supporters couldn't follow rules. Ignoring the fact that the rules were changed, then not followed by the very people who changed them.

It's been complaints about "free stuff". Red scaring, Socialism!!!! Justifying sending "illegals", also known as refugee children back to their home country without concern. Accepting poor labor practices. How letting people have access to healthcare will break the system for those that currently use it (Medicare). How expecting the rich to pay in to social programs is somehow unfair because they don't access/need them.

But until today, I thought the worst was justifying war, the disgusting amounts of shady money, and the Bush Donors.

But no, no. The worst is truly questioning if we hate democracy. Unbelievable. Never in my more than a decade at DU have I ever thought I would see that kind of Rovesque Screed spilled on these boards towards liberals.

What. The. Heck! Is this DU or Free Republic. Because Inhonestly can't tell where HRC supporters stand half the time.

1. It's been absolutely disgusting.

I've put more people on ignore the last few months than I ever dreamed I would. The attacks are nasty and personal and aimed at Bernie supporters at large- and they have no problem vilifying half the party and tearing it to shreds to get their "win" They don't mind the dirty tricks if it benefits their side.

I've been through many contested primaries before. This is as ugly as I've personally seen.

5. In all these years, I've never used 'ignore' or even 'trash this thread'.

Now I've just put my 60th person on ignore. And I trash at least a few threads a day. Not only is it therapeutic, but also makes the place much more readable and a whole lot more enjoyable.

7. I have just under 10

And it really takes a lot to get on that list. It's been shocking. Especially the transparency pages. They read like the WWE of message boards.

2. Depends on what the definition of "democracy" is n/t

3. *changes rules* "you're not allowed to change the rules!"

it's the old "stop hitting me!" when you're taking a swing

4. If and I do say IF

She ends up being the nominee, I wonder how any of these assholes(including her) can face themselves in a mirror know that they got where they were by lying and cheating... that isn't winning in any sense of the word.. But seems to be the republican and as we have here on this board "republican" lite.. and I mean lite in every sense of the word, bless there hearts

11. I don't think it'll bother them one little bit, honestly.

They are operating in an "ends justify the means" mentality. And they've completely convinced themselves that we're some kind of evil barbarians at the gate that must be stopped at all costs.

6. Consider the source

8. 2003

If you were against Bush, you were an "America hater".

I was asked plenty of times, "What do you have against $0.50/gal gasoline?"

When it all went to shit, of course it was someone else's fault. ("Curveball", faulty intelligence, "they don't appreciate freedom.&quot

Rovian for sure. Orwellian really. Just wait until she's flat-out flaunting her "enemies she's most proud of" as they band together to fight the evil Trump.

9. Exactly!!! Another contradiction

Today, the revelation that the CIA torture report was destroyed (or filed and missing). Everyone is freaking out, rightfully so. Yet, her running state business offline, out of government oversight. It's like, eh - so what? Is there a problem here? Totally trustworthy 100%.

Hell no! Just no people!!! Go ahead and sign your alliegence, but don't pretend or play stupid on such an important issue. The precedent this sets, alone is terrifying - as of her actions alone aren't.

I just can't. What our country has devolved to.

10. 30,000+ (that we're told of) "personal" emails deleted.

Over half of what was on her server. While the "work" emails are turned over as printouts, that need to be scanned (and then probably OCR'd) to be made usable.

Of course they want to make the "security inquiry" about emails that were classified after the fact.

My understanding is that a huge part of this is that it's a felony to delete any State Dept communication w/o making sure the Dept has a copy. So if a single one of those deleted emails was not personal, she's broken the law.

Not that a Clinton breaking the law is likely to matter. Because, Trump!
