21. From my observations

I would say that DU is ahead of the curve, i.e. many things that have started here as "fringe" issues/conspiracy theories have actually entered the mainstream as accepted truths in left of centre politics (e.g. many DUers knew 2 years ago that there were no WMD in Iraq).

I joined DU because I initially thought it was democratic with a small "d", i.e. giving a voice to people who don't have one (which it does in a way with the smattering of greens, independants, international DUers etc who post here).
