Showing Original Post only (View all)Seems to be one thing standing out as the one most important thing that hasn't changed in DU [View all]
for the last twenty years:
The number of phenomenally wonderful posters.
Whether it's breaking news, mini essays to make one think, Political cartoons, peeks at art and genuinely caring people under the same tent, DU has been there for me as a respite through times good and bad. I can't think of another website in the last two decades has this wonderful sanctuary for those who wish for respite from the pressures of the current political day or just share a frustration or two with others.
And of course, a hat tip to all those who made this happen and all those who help in herding the cats to keep DU, DU.
Thank you for putting up with me.
