Any Sanders' supporters familiar with


http://www.thepeoplesview.net/ ?

I came across it while googling a claim about Bernie that seemed bizarre.


Anyone remember the role played during the 2008 primary by the website, No Quarter? It was a website that, among other things, almost swore that the October surprise would be a tape of Michelle Obama making an anti-white rant against "Whitey." At that time, it claimed to be pro-Hillary, but it seems to be just RW. The owner of a political board on which I was posting then referred to it often.

Anyway, a sample from the "people's" view:

I'll be back to punching Bernie Sanders hippies later. For a change of pace, I punch GOP brownshirts. I'm multi-faceted.


The People's View doesn't seen to have a lot of content posted on it. From that, I assume it's relatively new. Anyone know anything about it?

1. It's a fucking worthless right-wing Democrat blog.

Yeah, make no mistake, "right" and "left" are not cleanly split between parties, and Spandan Chakrabarti is nothing other than the Democratic party version of Joseph Farah.

I didn't know about Russo or I wouldn't have posted it - I had originally found that article on FB.

huff because they felt that President Obama was being criticized too harshly on DK. It's been around for at least several years, because there was at least one person there who routinely crossposted his posts there to DK.

Everyone was always accusing people they disagreed with of 'shitting on' or 'pissing on' the President whenever he got criticized for doing something too Republican in nature.

When I read the posts of one DUer, the only thing that they conjure is him or her farting loudly and often as he or she types. I have no idea why.

That's not directly related to your posts, but I thought I'd come clean, as long as we're on bodily functions.

I don't think I'll be liking it very often, but it's good to know it's there, if the mood strikes.


Gee, what a great source to be using on DU, the blog of a DUer banned twice (that we know of) from here and also from Daily Kos.

What could possibly be more authoritative than that?

caught the tail end of MSNBC's ED Shultz show segment with a young blond woman who was responding to Ed's q. on hearing of BLM and B. and race. Ed looked concerned, puzzled and he's one of Bernie's strongest, or main ally on M$M. The chipper, rehearsed young woman firmly went into the gobble about B. has a problem with__, and focuses on economics from socialism "which Dr. Dyson explained...". Dyson was in the screen shot at the time, and had apparently just gone into some talk about black issues and the campaign, not sure. Sorry to see this, and it's spreading. I used to like D., read a bit about the recent dustup he and Cornel West had.
