1. We have sites.

3. Exactly, so why not ....

...as a statement, essentially stage a walk out? A coordinated effort of protest?

[bravenak]

4. Nobody notices

[HillareeeHillaraah]

6. No one would notice if the Hillary Group main board was empty?

((Sigh))) I suppose that's possible, still just entertaining the thought of some kind of counter action - helps my blood pressure go down a bit...

15. They'd miss us a little.. if you check out how many views we get on our threads.. it's in the

thousands.

[yardwork]

16. They'd miss us a lot. Nobody to alert stalk.

We are their cat toy.

[Cha]

17. Exactly.

[joshcryer]

12. bravenak

you rock

[bravenak]

18. You do too.

2. Many of us have been here over a decade and don't like the thought

of being chased out of our political home, but it is a very, very tempting idea.

[HillareeeHillaraah]

5. Not chased...

...I see it more as an act of defiance - empowerment.

The jury system is so out of whack, the anti Hillary posts are vile. It feels powerless to just ignore, constantly. We've already been chased off the home page, the front door ~ nothing pro Hillary there....

Just tossing ideas out...

[Lucinda]

8. Like I said, it's tempting to me. If things don't get better by the end of the month

I'll probably be gone for good. I actually like to discuss policy, and it's just not possible here right now. I have a lot of the worst offenders on ignore, but I'm not sure I want my name associated with the crap that is allowed to stand in GDP these days.

Anyway, don't mind me! People are pretty fed up, so there may be many who would join you once daylight comes!

[Sancho]

7. Yep...the inmates are in charge of the asylum...

I'm on DU less and less. Frankly, I'm ready to give it up now.

There's no way to even post factual information in a protected group with attacks from the piranha.

Pretty obvious that trolls are leading the "hate Hillary" club too.

The jury system doesn't work.

[liberal N proud]

9. Trashing the GD-P is the best thing you can do

You will feel a lot better and the BS'ers can spew their propaganda and you will not have to look at it.

Until this temper tantrum they are all throwing is over, it is best to steer clear.

[HillareeeHillaraah]

10. But they don't stop there do they?

They come in here and crock-block posts all the time

((Crock-block: When your post gets hidden by jury degree and you go and read the reasons for the hide...you think to yourself "what a crock of sh*t". That's getting crock-blocked)))

[anamnua]

11. Hillary is not a quitter

Let's follow her example.

[HillareeeHillaraah]

13. Agreed. She's my hero, my shero ~

I was suggesting not quitting but rather empowering, en masse. Thats all.

[Cha]

14. Right.. it's not "quitting"... it's getting out because the hides will continue until

morale improves.

19. I would hope no one wants you to leave and you should not feel uncomfortable being on DU

Maybe there is a way to work something out with Skinner that perhaps an 'H' or a 'B' appears automatically in the beginning of a post title within a protected group so people aren't accidentally clicking on something they probably don't want to read, or might get under their skin or spark a rash response.

I honestly don't know if it would help. Maybe those posts require unanimous juries.

Seeing someone say 'why don't we all leave' is a very sad statement and I don't think you should. I will try to do less editorializing on my posts and try to let articles speak for themselves. Heck it would save time anyway - less typing to do! (another thought: perhaps protected groups' posts don't appear in trending list?)

Anyway, just wanted to offer a short note to say please take heart.

[Cha]

23. that's not it, tomm.. it's the constant hiding of our members' posts here by BS fans.

They come in here to alert and hide.. and also the egregious posts insulting Hillary are left to stand because that's the way the majority rolls.

I don't blame Hillaree for feeling like she does.. I feel the same.

Thank you for being kind, though.

[tomm2thumbs]

25. I see, sorry to hear that

I just thought maybe they clicked on articles from the 'trending' list as I have often accidentally clicked on your groups' stories this way. I refrain from commenting on them as I am not a group member (until this one). I do think Skinner could easily adjust a setting so that Hillary/Bernie groups' posts do not to appear in the trending list and see if it helps. Outta sight, outta mind.

Maybe it will get better with more discussions across the lines. I'm used to working with very sarcastic people who love getting reactions so I tend to brush it off, but I'm the exception I'm sure.

Either way, hang in there and hope you all don't choose to leave. Deep down I think anyone on this board would jump to help another member in need out in the real world -- and I am heartened by things like SalmonChanted weekly posts that pull everyone around the campfire for good stuff to celebrate.

Cheers!

20. You just got here, now want everyone to leave

You should be able to last longer than a month before you start calling for everyone else to leave.

[HillareeeHillaraah]

21. Oh, I've been reading here for years...

My clicks have generated revenue for this site over the years. Only started posting when it seemed so out of balance. Still one great thing about democracy is the notion of equal voices, equal votes. So while my post list is relatively short, my voice is just as valid I believe. As is yours.

Enjoy the rest of your day.

22. You should respect that you're in Hillary's Group.

[Coolest Ranger]

28. You are in the Hillary Clinton group

If you can't say anything nice about the posters here, kindly leave and not show up here again. Many of us are tired of the attitudes we see day in and day out.. Go to General Discussion Primaries

[Her Sister]

24. HRC Group is a refuge and a base!!

i think we are getting more and more HRC voters here!
Even with the GDP situation we should be getting stronger. More people have voted for HRC. That is plenty proof. Makes me double down even more. I am a newbie now. But so glad that this group is here. Also new people can find us here.

[yallerdawg]

26. WE are the insurgency.

The forces supporting the status quo have failed.

The 'quiet revolution' is nearing the culmination of achievement, shattering that last ultimate glass ceiling.

This will finally change...



...with this!

[HillareeeHillaraah]

27. Yay you, yallerdawg....

Yay you.

This may sound real nerdy, but I swear I get a little bit of a rush every time I read, Madame President.

Can't wait!
