ETA: They are not worth your time or energy. They thrive on the pain and distress of those fortunate enough to be unlike them.

Is bringing down others.

Consider it a badge of honor that you've caught their attention, it means you've done something with your life and they feel the need to be jackasses about it.

I got a little over zealous in a post once and gave out a bit too much info. A CC dweller figured out where I was working and called there claiming I was making threats to the President. (Bush 2 at the time)

Lost the job. 2 weeks later I got a new gig and doubled my salary. Boy did that piss them off

They really worshipped that guy. I made a joke about slipping a subliminal "I hate Bush" frame in a video I was doing for a church. It really pissed them off...

A bunch of fools who repeat whatever Fox Non-News and right wing fascist radio frame about "Teh Left". They pick and choose whatever makes DU look bad and ignore anything that shatters their narrow minds.

DU took Righthaven to court and prevailed, while the Cave submitted to the predators.

It just gives them exposure. They've got nothing better to do than pick on people they don't know. I guess it gets boring in mom's basement.
