With an occasional thoughtful, intelligent thread.
But most of it is horrible, and you're right, it is on both sides, BUT there are so many more Bernie supporters here that you end up with 10 horrible threads about Hillary to every 1 horrible thread about Bernie. Even the trolls are proportional. It also really bothers me how many right wing talking points are used to smear Hillary. I don't like when people red-bait Sanders either - he's too far to the left for my personal preference, but I don't think he's a communist and no one else here really does either. It's also a right wing smear and I feel we should be better than that.
This primary has brought the worst out in people. I pride myself on never being uncivil, but it has been an absolute struggle as I've been called a liar, a corporatist (...not even sure what that means), a 1%er (I wish), a neocon/conservative/Republican/Libertarian (have voted Dem in every election since I turned 18), and in one notable instance, a Bernie supporter continued to use offensive rape rhetoric in post after post after I explained that I wished he would refrain because I am a rape survivor. I trashed GDP for a few weeks; maybe I should do that again. This place makes me feel physically ill when I get offline. That's probably not good, eh?
It used to be that the poll/data threads had the most interesting conversations, but now they seem to be mostly being used to bludgeon the other side as well (on both sides). Not sure where to find substantive posts here anymore.
Thank you for your reply, and for listening.
