may I suggest if you are posting an negative post about a candidate you not hide

[awake]

Behind the veil of a protective "group" instead please post it on the GP primaries forum so the supporters of the other candidate can respond, I may be wrong but I thought the main reason for "groups" was the talk about your support of your candidate not to bring down the other one, Just saying.

1. I think this is a very good comment. This works both ways.

The one thing you cant do, however, is expose the racism that exists around here, that will get you a quick hide.

3. I disagree. One can expose bigotry, but if they call out

another person for it the they may get a hide.

I don't like bigots of any group.

5. What do you disagree with? I said calling out racism here gets you a hide, has me many times

all of my hides have come from that, actually.

7. When you called out bigotry how did you handle it?

Did you accuse anotger poster outright?

That will probably get you a hide.

2. Is TRUTH About A Candidate Considered Negative?

6. One should be able to share their "Truth" where a response will not get a hide from a group

If you think you know a "Truth" about a candidate please share it in an open forum so others can respond

4. I think you can still alert on threads that displease you even in protected groups.

If that's the crux of your post anyway.

12. I don't think we should be able to do that

I also don't think posters who are on time out should be able to like OPs either.

8. I disagree. The tone has gotten so toxic. I want all overly partisan...

to spout their noise ONLY in protected groups.

9. I don't post

negative threads about any candidate.

I have posted positive threads about the candidate I support.

I have responded to negative posts about all 3 candidates; it's hard not to, since I see more negative threads than positive.

Edited to add:

When responding to negative posts, I HAVE said negative things about one of the three candidates. That's because there are more negatives than positives to talk about from my perspective.

10. Good

11. Just don't read the opposite group's forum

Everyone should just stay away from each other's forums. There is nothing there but stuff that will not agree with your own truths and the both will just seem juvenal to the opposing viewpoint.


This schism may never heal or it may, but it won't before September of next year, I believe.

13. If a poster know that there will be a response to there posts that does not agree with them

Then they are more than likely to think before they post and not be as aggressive as if they would be knowing only their point of view will be shown
