(45,319 posts)He did his lies and disrupting right here on DU, like it or not, proof is a click away. In addition, you should consider some context. When MM was producing his lies at right wing sites, myself and other Oregonians were engaged in fighting an amendment just like the one NC just passed. He was the opposition in 2004. Trashed Kerry, gay people, African Americans, you name it. He did all of that during the right wings most concerted efforts against LGBT equality, there were bit of legislation in dozens of States and localities, and he was one of the most strident and ardent and extreme of their voices. Then he came here and lied about it repeatedly while claiming the right to lecture and preach at gay people and chide us for wanting progress. While the lexicon was altered, the objective remained the same, hinder as much as possible for as long as possible, and spread among the right horrid slanders while on 'the left' urging 'pragmatic delay' and typing 'realistically....he just can't do anything at this time'.
So pushing this crap that it was a singular slur, when it was many,many posts and OP's and pushing the 6 years ago thing when he misused DU and DUers with mendacious and arrogant ravings, these are the actions of a person out to defend, diminish and mitigate the slanders and the lies. It is not MM you are defending, it is his actions, and it is not the distant past, it is recent and on DU and it was not 'MM's slur' it was a canon of anti gay baiting, filthy lies and ignorant propaganda pushed by a guy who claims he's all about 'science' and 'reality'.
