You know the more i am on here, the more i treasure the intelligence shown, and even the silliness shown. However, lately i have mostly been feeling, "Get Off My Lawn!" with the trolls trying to discourage voting.
Anybody else?
Democrats don't have lawns.
I am a dem, and I have a lawn......
I can't keep the dogs from pooping in my lawn. Or the Republicans.
I missed "the trolls trying to discourage voting", but I haven't been reading too many posts. What type of things are being said?
This guy below, for one. If you read his posts he is a Bernie basher and learned his facts from the Trump school of "just blah blah blah blah."
"Everyone must vote but for the record, Bernie supporters sat out 2016 election !!!!!

@Athena yup, him. Contemplating getting a much larger dog so 1. It can chase him off my lawn (the 11-lb-er isn't going to cut it) and 2. It will leave big piles of poop for him to step in. I love it when a plan comes together!
@Athena, @AnneWimsey Everyone is entitled to an opinion. Focusing on facts for or against a position is a best bet.
@Flowerwall the problem is, WE present a ton of facts, they deflect, never cite, and present more opinion taken directly from Faux. Just ONE (1) actual fact would be stunning!
@AnneWimsey I am sure it can seem that way. But as people read and there are no supporting facts it's obvious.
Thanks for stepping in as the "voice of reason."
*applause.
You stated in your first post that you were unaware of this trolling and then read a thread, loaded with our past knowledge of it, only to offer a patronizing comment.
This member trolls the Bernie group endlessly, saying brilliant things like "America would never elect a hunchback Jew as president." He also throws around the word "communist" as though he understands what it means. As Anne states, he doesn't provide actual facts. I will add he offers just opinions a la Alex Jones.
Your comment, in other words:
"I don't know of anything about this but thought I'd comment anyway as though I do and also school y'all on how to behave."
Again, thanks!
@Athena Yeah attempting to employ reason is a favorite tactic of mine, lol. Thanks for the applause! Hope you are having a great day!
Throwing around a word "communist" - it's not threatening. Is he communist? Reason will win the arguement. I personally am currently in favor of Sanders even though I do disagree with some of his policy proposals. Maybe even a lot of his policy ideas, but I get a good sense of Sanders as an individual who genuinely cares and wants to make a positive difference. To me, this is key. The "communist" vibe I am getting in the Presdential race is coming from all these candidates who don't seem to be fully functioning the same reality as the average American, although that's not such an accurate use of the word. I mean corrupt. Sanders seems to be in touch with reality. So if he has a hunchback, or is Jewish, who gives a damn? Does he understand the plight of the middle and working class of America? Will he work for our interests or will he be working for tax cuts for the rich? Ha-ha, NO! (NOT WORKING FOR THE INTERESTS OF THE RICH)
Yes, there are a few. I find them so entertaining!
Let them have their thrill.. it's ALL they have to live for.
And if they get really ugly and obnoxious you can always group block the Trollies into oblivion!
Me too. Many more trolls, and much more divisiveness.
Everyone must vote but for the record, Bernie supporters sat out 2016 election !!!!!
No they did not, and Bernie held 39 rallies for Hilary (FACT!) After the DNC screwed him. Your ignorance is ASStounding!
Okay, now you're just being a dick..
And not in a good way.. more like floppy, disappointing and just trying too hard without any success.
What's that about Bernie supporters sitting out the 2016 election?
YOU said you'll vote for Trump over Bernie. Fucking traitor.
Hi troll.
@St-Sinner What are the exact worries? What is the problem?
@St-Sinner news from Faux...we constantly present you with Actual Facts and you deflect or reply with opinions only, or actual LIES. Try Googling how many rallies Bernie led for Hilary after the convention, pretty please?
