2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: To my Clinton supporter friends [View all]MineralMan
(146,262 posts)We have a discussion forum right here where we are discussing the primary elections and candidates. Apparently, some DUers who are currently on time-outs have started yet another discussion forum. Both Clinton fans and Sanders fans have some members who are on time-outs from DU and some who have even been banned here. So, as often happens, they take their discussions elsewhere. I don't know about anyone else, but I avoid such websites. They are rarely interesting on their own.
In the meantime, there is DU, where people who can discuss things civilly have a forum read by many, many people. The discussion goes on daily here. Bringing other Internet places into the discussion does nothing to promote anything, other than to talk about DUers, some of whom can't post here for some time period.
I'm afraid I don't see the utility of this, nor do I see how it applies to our discussions on DU. Over time, there have been any number of Internet forums set up by former DUers. None have thrived, because the discussion at those sites is all about DU, rather than about real topics that are worthy of discussion.
I suggest we discuss candidates and issues, rather than DUers who cannot currently post here.
