who repeatedly make a point of dropping by threads to state their same critique. It is difficult to not resent these people but we have to maintain our civility.

I got a hide last week when this rather nasty individual (name REDACTED like in the Mueller report) kept insisting Mayor Pete's 15 minutes of fame were over when he said something that was critical of Hillary's 2016 campaign strategy. She said his support would keep declining.

So I replied to her. I let her know that I'd noticed she kept reiterating that opinion in various threads and that, even though we're almost all anonymous people on a discussion forum, she should be accountable for her words. I told her I'd happily revisit the thread and point out how wrong she was after Mayor Pete continued to ascend to even greater heights. Apparently that crossed the line because a jury removed my post.

So I put her on ignore instead. For now...
