Reply #41: I honestly understand. And folks on DU are not in consensus.

Generally we agree and support the platform and administration but when it comes to policy and detail we are not always in agreement.

I wish you well if and wherever you do go or if and when you return. If you do find a new home though, please try to remember this forum is not affiliated with the Democratic Party and the name Underground probably attracts more people who are anti-authority types. And lotsa people are hurting now, even anti-authority types.

I do wish people would realize that many people who come here are honestly unfamiliar with talking politics and may be way behind the curve in terms of history and government. I often sense hostility that is unwarranted and sometimes jump in because I never shy away from a fight over policy or justice. I get your meaning why you might think I come here to rant, but I really come here to improve my understanding and communication skills. I am relatively new to talking about politics and never had a good history teacher and despite having ADD and being a lil aggressive, I generally have love for my fellow human and am fascinated by politics and history.
