it is now becoming a discussion on a particular poster rather than a question of what should be a standard for discourse.

There are those at DU who have taken the Republican strategy that there is more with less, strength in division. They post exaggerating divisions and think that DU gains strength as it becomes more visceral, more intolerant and also when its ranking of websites in the US continues to steadily decline.

My suggestion is to simply avoid them.

They have no impact beyond DU and a marginal one here.

Work on building solidarity, concentrate on the issues and avoid the threads that continue to make the poster the center of attention have a sad pathos to them.

As the thread has gone way off of the subject of supporting the President and his policies, locking.

Thanks for your understanding.
