Either my reply was too cynical (salty in today's lingo), didn’t really add anything, somebody already posted what I was going to say while I was replying, or was too derogatory towards someone who is generally "on our side" (looking at you Senator Schumer not supporting the Democratic candidate, while giving tacit support to the Trump supported candidate). Also I delete posts which I feel simply won't resonate because the soapbox I'm standing on is too high.
