A Resource we need to exploit
Edited on Sat May-29-04 11:15 AM by kiloman
The Right has, And with Gusto and Glee.
I’ve found over the months of being lost in the “wilderness” of local and regional community boards an overwhelming presence by those on the right.

I’ve not been on D.U for very long, It is an Oasis, A place where we can relax and communicate with our fellow brothers and sisters the truth of the democracy we live in.

It has bothered my spirit to abandon those boards that I spent so long on, Trying to fight back against the tag team mentality and personal attacks whenever a lie was challenged or a truth exposed.
This is a very important year for our Nation as well as the World, We need to take back the momentum from those who have invaded the smaller less populated community boards used by news outlets TV, and print and stop them from representing themselves as the majority and their ideology as the norm.
It is a battle but one we must all fight.

I would like to see a coordinated pursuit on the part of DU s membership to do just this.
To take back our country should begin at the local level of cyber space, It is a proposition that the right understands very well, Look around, You will see.

Remember, It is we who are the majority, It is we who hold the moral high ground.
Lets take it back, One step at a time, I’m willing to help in any way I can.

1. I agree. The state boards here are still not getting a lot of traffic.
Of course, you can try to direct people from other local boards to the state DU boards.

However, generally speaking, yeah. It's incredibly important to take the dicussion to very local levels.
