With DU down, I learned two things..
1. I'm addicted to DU

2. All the other Democratic boards suck, relative to DU.

26. Hi - nice to meet you
I keep finding more and more Democrats in Houston! The only meetups have been downtown and I don't do downtown. Maybe we should organize our own.

9. It's the lack of real time info

24. SC is so hopelessly restrictive
limited threads that go on forever, because if you post anything REMOTELY related to another thread, you get smacked down!

Glad to have DU back!

22. Over the next 9 months expect more of this
Conditioning people to a selective and progressive unreliability of internet access over a period of time rather than having a sudden shut down is the plan at hand.

People will vent their anger at the internet rather than the hand on the valve.

This is the most efficient way a repressive regieme would handle the problem of civil unrest and revolutionary ideas being fostered on the web.
