Now it's the NAACP's turn under the bus.

Beyond sad.

1. Thank you for the link, RSF.. why would he even say that just because Hillary

spoke there? Is it because Black Voters prefer her?''

Which they overwhelmingly do.

[revmclaren]

2. What they mean is Black Voters actually have the nerve to vote........

Im white as typing paper but I can see what they really mean without even squinting. Huge number of DUers outing themselves lately.

Sad but expected.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

35. And the fucking admins don't do anything about the racism here at DU.

They don't care at all!

[2naSalit]

3. Hate runs pretty deep

and it is so toxic that it's hard to keep it from oozing out and exposing its host.

20. Juror #2. "Could use a sarcasm tag."

Willfully misunderstanding the intent to justify a leave.

[shenmue]

5. Patryn's profile says 'left-wing libertarian'

That explains a bit.

[IamMab]

18. Also, "Patryn" is the name of a xenophobic race of characters from a Weis-Hickman book series...

Now, I like fictional species as much as the next fantasy/sci-fi reader, but that doesn't mean I try to emulate them in my real life.

Some people, though...

[wryter2000]

24. Perfect description of the trolls who are supporting Sanders here

I certainly hope they'll go away after the primaries, and I hope Skinner makes it 100% clear we're going to support the Dem nominee.

[Firebrand Gary]

6. Unbelievable.

I'm past the point of stating they couldn't get any lower, we're so far past that. So I will just leave this right here

[JustAnotherGen]

7. I really just read that at DU?

Excuse me but -

Oh my Jesus effin' Christ*smdh*

[Cha]

9. And, it just keeps getting worse..

[JustAnotherGen]

11. I've decided to just go with it!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1014&pid=1434326

[Cha]

13. ..

yes Hillary hired us because otherwise she wouldn't have any supporters..

That wouldn't do.

[Hoyt]

8. Absolutely amazing. Sanders darn sure has brought out an ugliness you'd expect from GOPers.

[Cha]

10. Oh yes he has.. with abandon

[Coolest Ranger]

12. The most shocking thing to me

is how his supporters just disrespect us and then accuse us of being the bully and then explaining things to us like we're a child. This is what turned me off from Bernie in the first place. This is why he's losing in the polls.

[savalez]

33. They've been playing that game from day one.

And yes, you are correct, it's transparent, the reason they are losing and I might add the reason they are universally ridiculed.

[stonecutter357]

14. K&R!

[BlueMTexpat]

15. That person has been added

to my ever-growing Iggy List.

I know that some people don't use Ignore. I didn't myself all that much until Dec 2015 (had four posters on it then and they were all likely trolls who had also been PPRed).

But since then, the list has grown exponentially and on a daily basis. I do not miss ANY single one of them. The sad thing is that there are some there whom I used to respect and admire. No more.

Once we actually have a confirmed Dem nominee, I may give some a second chance. Perhaps ....

[Thinkingabout]

16. It is warm and cozy under the bus, NAACP is welcome, but then they knew

Hillary had the welcome mat for many years.

[Cha]

25. Yes, they're in such good company, Thinking!

[Walk away]

17. This is what comes of Bernie implying that Black voters in the South don't count.

A little blatant racism at the top will trickle down to a stinking mess down below. No wonder these folks can't wait to vote for Trump when Bernie finally folds up his tent. They are birds of a feather.

Apparently POC not only have a right to endorse and vote for whomever they please, they are right about who they are endorsing and voting for.

[Cha]

21. Exactly Walk away.. I blame bern and his trusty surrogate tim robbins.. all of them really.

[Quayblue]

22. Exactly

Bernie is no leader despite their delusions.

[greatauntoftriplets]

19. WTF?????

[book_worm]

23. With supporters like that is it any wonder that Bernie only attracts mainly white men

[Agnosticsherbet]

26. The OP was locked for being off topic. That comment was virulently racist.

I am not sure anymore whether there are any standards of discourse here.

[UMTerp01]

27. Wow!!!! Really?!!!!

I've seen a particular brand of Democratic bigotry since 2008 election. Some of Hillary's supporters were THE WORST when Obama ran in 08. Bernie has not been so supportive of Obama this time around and because he's failed to garner the support of the Black vote, some of his supporters are showing their brand of bigotry as well. Sad.

[johnp3907]

28. And now the thread has been locked as off topic.

???

[UtahLib]

29. Bernie gives them a little rope

and they're hanging him and themselves with it.

[Gothmog]

30. This is getting sad-first John Lewis and now the NAACP

[mercuryblues]

31. Not only

the NAACP thrown under the bus, they are pulling Orrin Hatch out from under his white hood.

Yup, Hillary is a liar, based on an interview with Orrin Hatch that Bernie supporters dug up from '08.


How much longer will they deny the under current of racism they exhibit?

[kimbutgar]

32. For me I got turned off by the NAACP when they accepted money from the kochs

[Setsuna1972]

34. Speechless

That person must have missed their turn while going to the local KKK meeting ! Totally wrong !!!

[RandySF]

36. Yes, it unbelievable.
