2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Aren't you tired of the character assassination against Bernie? [View all]LanternWaste
(37,748 posts)It's the depth of analyses in response to your OP that fills me with confidence in regards to the members here. I can't help but notice how almost everyone's additions are rational reasoning and dissection of platform policy. How almost every responsive post has a nuanced and objective diagnosis of reasonable criticism. Verification, cited sources and unemotional investigations are the meat of this discussion, with every indictment or denunciation backed up by peer-reviewed evidence.
Throw-away mudslinging, petulant name-calling, slander and smears are dramatically absent. Gone are the half-witted appellations such as "deceitful", "desperate", "swift-boating" and a dozen other meaningless bits of drivel favored by the sub-literate and uneducated whose minds are far too small to entertain skill and accuracy in what we may safely presume to be their second language.
Truly... a thread with sincere merit, honest dignity, marveled worth and esteemed value-- as like most of the threads in GDP. Commendable. Truly commendable.
