One good thing about the sudden (but surely coincidental) spate of anti-Kamala threads:

It's given us a break, however brief, from the anti-Pelosi threads.

is go after Kamala 2.0. They stopped for a while. Or i just stopped going to the Discussionist. Maybe 1.0 wasn't effective. The lesson is that she is the one to watch.

I'm sure she's had worse, particularly as California's AG. It pisses me off though. Why can't people at least be original? Same old crap. Fact checking is for cucks.

her, you know, "previous relationship" back when she was single. I alrerted on it because it's not only misogynist, but also RW trash, but I doubt it was taken down.

You know those single women who have sex! Such hobags!

Someone being a loose woman or other outrageous rumors are one thing.

Stuff about someone's legislative record is another. Someone's record is a perfectly legitimately issue to start a thread over.

So far I haven't seen any anti-Biden threads that weren't about legitimate policy issues.

Except the one about personal space and I actually don't find any of that very compelling.

They want to go after her because she said she’d prosecute his ass asap.

I will not put ANY Dem down or read negative stuff. I don’t care. ANYONE is my motto.

Don’t fall for this BS again.

are accusing of being "pro trump bots and trolls".

I don't like the anti-Kamala threads dredging up her past just like I don't like the anti-Biden threads.. or the anti-Pelosi threads. They're all short sighted.

But I see no "Pro trump bots" like you assert.

Democrats have just as much right to favor impeachment now as Speaker Pelosi has to wait.

Saying that I favor impeachment now doesn't mean I am anti-Pelosi. I resent the implication. I pushed for her to be Speaker and believe she is one of the best Speakers we have had. I disagree with her take on impeachment.

If you're not posting anti-Pelosi OPs, there's no need to be so defensive.

especially when I saw the sort of sarcastic observation how she lived in Berkeley and her parents were college professors, like that meant she couldn't be bused for desegregation. It did sound like this "not really American/not really black" meme the bots were putting out was having an effect even on Democrats.
