Good evening all

I think this may be the first OP I've ever posted in this group but the crap that is being tossed out is just out of control & the blatant hypocrisy being displayed is off the charts.

I couldn't hold my tounge anymore when yet another overly concerned Caucasian decided how terrible the CPT statement was. Needless to say the thread got all touchy feely & all sorts of new minorities came swarming in. Anyways the thread got really fun when a poster decided to call me a coward, blatantly not even nuaunced. I took it with a grain of salt & nothing but a smartass remark of "your mom's a coward". Well low & behold guess who got alerted on & a freaking hide?

The best part is his post that he called me a coward, was kept with the explanation that I am a coward so it's ok. I will not sit down & coddle these poor uninformed souls anymore, there is no more surgat coating their ignorance.

I am posting both alerts & results for transparency.

Pretty fucking convenient typo..forgetting the tgiven

2. Good, I hate getting into those threads but I'll be damned if I'm

just going to sit back & let them fluff their faux outrage.

3. Breathe my sister-friend ...

as a veteran "hide the nig ..., erm, ... that HRC supporting, divisive, 3rd-way oligarchy lackey's voice ... I say breathe, laugh, and wait ... most of these "allies" will be consigned to the irrelevancy that they have always been, ... writing shit in, soon enough.

[giftedgirl77]

4. Lol, that's why I responded with a smartass response.

How in the world it turned into a mom insult is beyond me. Hell my son says things to me & I make your mom jokes. I just couldn't believe it. I stopped taking this place seriously a long time ago, I think there are quite a few people on this board that have never really been around black folks in a casual setting.

5. My sister and I used to do the "dozens" ...

My end game, on a particularly biting quip was to say, "Your half!

I think there are quite a few people on this board that have never really been around black folks in a casual setting.

As my Brother-Friend, DemocratSinceBirth observed/opined, "Leroy, the guy that sells them their weed doesn't count!"

6. ....

[brer cat]

10. DSB deserves an award for that comment.

Best evah!!

[betsuni]

7. I laughed at the mom comment.

Seemed a perfectly normal response to all that nonsense. The name typo was funny too.

From that thread I also learned that this group is hosted by Hillary Astroturfers who systematically ban Sanders supporters. Systematically! I wonder what a Hillary Astroturfer is. It must be a bad thing because the "Hillary" is in front of it.

9. Right?

If anybody in their right mind thought I was insulting someone's mom they are unable to function in the real world. There is not to be any distent I'm BernieLand.

God forbid we actually point out their hypocrisy.

[1StrongBlackMan]

11. Ahhh ... now you get it ...

they are unable to function in the real world.

Why else would they take any of this shit, seriously.

[Number23]

19. BEST FUCKING POST IN THAT THREAD was from you

She's telling you her views align with ... the vast majority of Black posters on DU (well, Black before 4/2015)

THREAD. WINNA!

Doncha just LOVE all of these spanking new minorities that suddenly felt the need to divulge their minority status the MILLISECOND it came out that Sanders was having trouble connecting with minority communities???!!!

[1StrongBlackMan]

21. Purely coincidental, I'll bet.

[Jackie Wilson Said]

12. I repeatedly posted to that person asking where have they been with redlining and hiring

practices and shootings over the years.

The answer is almost none of them care about that stuff of course.

Sure, it is easy to be outraged when a cop kills a kid for no reason, but a two minute blurb on a message board isn't enough.

[giftedgirl77]

13. More than one that jumped on that bandwagon is a Zimmerman supporter.

Case & point.

[Number23]

18. I loved the "MANY AA"s have been banned from the AA Forum!!11" comment

There are two people who have identified as black that have been banned from this forum and both of them are every bit as clueless and loony as the white folks that are banned too. And there's at least one more that could be added to that list and judging by the unhinged fuckwittery they spew all over this site, I don't think it would surprise anyone on this board if/when the block ever comes.

And you would think that if you have the time to come up with a phrase as both simultaneously stupid and meaningless a "Hillary astroturphers," well, you'd have enough time to come up with something less simultaneously stupid and meaningless.

8. Please be sure to

alert on the results so the admins can take the aleters privileges away

[kwassa]

14. I thought you were great in that thread.

and I can't believe his comment calling you racist and a coward was allowed to stand.

Unbelievable.

[giftedgirl77]

15. Lol, it's amazing how much these "liberals" insist on shouting us down.

but thank you, I was using great restraint to try & have an actual conversation until he called me a coward & racist.

[stevenleser]

16. Its over the top. I am an antisemitic Jewish person, haven't you heard?

I've also been called racist by a white DUer and I am mixed race.

[Number23]

17. These people lost their minds a looooong time ago and seem to be working triple time to let everyone

know it too.

They are as unhinged as they are completely boring. I've been to DU twice in the last week and outside of this forum, there is damn near nothing here worth READING let alone worth responding too. I truly think you could come here once a month and see/read exactly the same shit from the same crowd over and over again. Like a Diseased Groundhog day.

Even saw where the little crowd of nobodies that haunts bravenak's every step are still doing so despite her being flagged for review for over the last week. Just siting in her OP's, days later, happy as clams that she's on Flagged for Review BLISSFULLY unaware of how damned stalkerish and stupid they look.

[betsuni]

20. Diseased Groundhog Day! Reading your comment I had a vision

of DU as a Hieronymus Bosch painting.
