Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumZero tolerence for sexism.
This is my request for the Primaries. When tempers are frayed its easy to slip into misogynist media narratives.
Ill give you an example. In 2008 Joe Scarborough referred to Hillarys laugh in an interview as a cackle . DU became consumed with it. This time round the RW is saying Kamala has a witch like cackle.
Elizabeth, Kamala, and Amy are fine candidates. In the heat of battle its not to much to ask posters to pull back if they cross the line. A simple thats sexism let it go would do.

(102,138 posts)Sure, but in my many years on DU, I rarely see the person accept the criticism and move on. You seem to be pinning the continued drama on the poster calling out the behavior. I'm not sure that's always or even usually the case.

(7,277 posts)I think there were three separate threads on HIllarys cackle. Sometimes a respectful request can lower the temperature.
