(10,893 posts)there is a problem--not just regarding O, but Democrats in general, as well as issues concerning women and minorities. It's nothing new. It almost feels like a coordinated effort from the Right to target as many online discussion forums as possible and use many different tactics to either push their agenda or to stifle ours. I see plenty of wingnuts posting everywhere--they seemingly outnumber us on sports forums, on YouTube, and there are even some who post on progressive sites. In fact, there was a clip posted here not too long ago about a group of RWers holding a meeting, discussing tactics like going on Amazon just to give negative reviews to left-leaning books.
As for here, I try not to worry about it most of the time and I lurk as other DUers engage the infiltrators.
