Your thread topic was fine. It is the comments that followed in response they had to lock. The back and forth fighting is what DU tries to keep under control.

I agree with you that general election stuff isn't technically primary stuff either.

I think the general election stuff re clinton v trump isn't about the primary either.

But that doesn't make what you did as something other than a discussion about the discussion in GDP, which is to say a metadiscussion, and someone decided you were worth the hide. I think your approach left you unprotected from that.
