I am leary of posting this but... HRC ROOM

HILLARY CLINTON ROOM.

It is becoming clearer after these last few weeks and particularly last night that vocal Hillary Clinton supporters are being targeted for hides.

Last night people put legitimate concerns foward about Sanders and two posts were hidden. All the hides were aboug were stifling opposition to Sanders.

We are in the minority here and that has become clearer as great posters have been alert stalked and gotten bogus hides and forced vacations. It is getting harder to post here due to fear of hides and the vitriol being hurled at HRC and her supporters here.

I am leary of posting this meta here because it is very meta but as a host I have leeway on it. This needs to be said.

Just be careful what you say and use ignore and the trash function if you are inclined to.

Use your jury blacklist.

BE CAUTIOUS how you respond to this thread because people are watching and have itchy fingers on that alert button. I expect to be alerted on but it needs to be said.

And again this is a reminder this is the HRC room which is for supporters.
