(32,886 posts)Of this and what you see from the anti-Obama and pro-Putin crowd on DU. Nationalism, specifically the negative-Nationalism variety, when one group or country has been designated by a person as evil and the enemy and anyone or anything against that entity automatically becomes good no matter how horrendous they are.
For Catherina, and many who think like her here, the US is that enemy. That makes Putin good, Maduro good, etc. Obama as President of that hated entity automatically becomes bad as do all who support him hence the House-* comment.
I find it interesting also that posts have been hidden for writing only the unvarnished truth and they have no doubt been hidden by folks who elsewhere I have seen posting that the truth should be an absolute defense to hidden posts and who call other people authoritarian.
I join others here supporting Geek Tragedy, Chi-town Kev and NuclearDem.
It's very interesting to see who gets support here and who, ahem, receives condemnation and hidden posts.
