In reply to the discussion: David Brock apologizes for the way he treated Bernie in the Campaign! [View all]synergie
(1,901 posts)and was blocked from the BS group, and I'm still blocked. There sure is a lot of over sensitivity going on still.
I was pretty irritated by that, especially since I had no means to appeal. The fact that the BS group is still engaging in those blocks and the divisive nature of what goes on in that group speaks volumes.
Also, the people trolling on DU, were indeed in full out war mode on anyone who dared to criticize Bernie, not matter how legitimate the criticism, people were attacked, silenced, and called Brock employees. At the same time, people who were actively engaging in and crowing about being divisive trolls from other sites, were gleefully being cheered on, as long as the abuse was towards HRC. RW sites were used often, familiar talking points and a whole lot of hypersensitivity and abuse.
Bernie and his campaign were that overly sensitive and the grudge they're holding is not very well hidden.
