Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumI never thought I'd see the day when Fox News was gleefully accepted by DU posters
as a legitimate source.
In five minutes browsing the "Greatest" page, I found three threads using nothing but Fox News as a source without even really trying. In one, they even joked about "oh, no, a right-wing source" but took no issue with it because Clinton.
Strange bedfellows, eh?

(3,212 posts)like Cons now. They are not about facts or reality any more. They just love propaganda. TYT is that way now.
Oh well.
How can anyone really take them seriously at this point?
It kind of reminds me of Scientologists. anyone who says anything against L Ron Hubbard or Scientology is a "supressive person"

(14,400 posts)Red State, Newsmax and National Review have all been used by a certain faction of DUers over the last few weeks.
The funny thing is they can't even see how idiotic it is.

(11,243 posts)post crap from Fox, too. They are VERY confused young men. Most don't actually vote, either. I know because this is a matter of public record, so I check. but doesn't stop them from talking MASSIVE amounts of shit. More than a few like that probably found their way here.
If you alert and I am on the jury, I will vote to hide. But most won't, I guess. Or maybe we just don't care anymore?

Oh well, I am still training them up. I am "bad cop" when we have training issues, too. My male partner is uncomfortable with conflict, so I get to do the dirty when one of them is not behaving. Go figure.

(9,494 posts)As everyone else turns their backs on Bernie and his pointless crusade, the tight little knout of Sanders Followers cling to whatever corner of the internet they can find some purchase.
DU has been digging this hole for itself for years. It's like an open grave just waiting for Bernie's defunct campaign to fall in.
TwilightZone
(25,517 posts)I just recently came back, and the funny thing is that the place really hasn't changed. I was a bit shocked to find some of the most obvious trolls from years ago still here, though, but now with 100k posts. Posting the same nonsense like hit jobs on Chelsea's husband instead of, say John Kerry. Or John Kerry's wife. lol
I have seen similar behavior on other sites, and I came back in part out of curiosity to see if it was as bad here. I think it's actually worse. They seem a lot more coordinated here. But, nah, not really surprised.
I might hang around just to watch the train wreck, plus I do enjoy this group. The sad thing, I guess, is that I've liked Bernie Sanders for decades and this election cycle has made me realize that he wasn't who or what I thought he was.

So, it works both ways. Plus, I feel like I'm there a lot. haha
