In reply to the discussion: Trump proposal to ban Muslims from US relies on debunked poll from pro-Israel think tank [View all]oberliner

I find Mondoweiss to be one of the most ugly, bigoted websites that I have ever come across.
The same reason why most DUers find sites like WorldNetDaily to be a problem.
It is just absolutely loathsome - especially the articles written by the person who runs the site and the regular commentators and commenters.
I definitely support reading all types of opinions, but I don't come to DU wanting to read articles by bigots.
When you defend/excuse the likes of Ann Coulter and Donald Trump while disparaging just about every Democrat from Hillary Clinton to Bernie Sanders, you pretty much don't belong on a site like DU in my opinion.
