(24,780 posts)It's all bogus and subject to the latest group think. And group think is a major distinguishing characteristic of DU.
As such, white Bernie supporters purged a Black because they didn't want to hear what he had to say about being Black. The consistent undeviated path is for Bernie supporters to tell Blacks what they should think, what they should and should not say and how to act.
Bernie supporters just don't get it. They don't like being told what they don't want to hear anymore than AA's do. But because white Sanders supporters cannot be told they are wrong by a Black, Bravenak is gone. This place is anything BUT the Democratic Underground. I hope Skinner gets a handle on this real quick or else DU will have a rap that sticks that it's a haven for group think white liberals who exclude the Black message. That is, beyond the AA community.
And I'm as white as they are.
