Are DCUM Political Topics Changing Your Vote?

I have stopped taking anything here with any weight as I don't even think most are written by regular parents but rather, professional consultants. You are asking if your efforts have worked - my answer is "no".

Well - I can't speak for all the political posts, but as the OP of this and a few other posts, I can honestly tell you that I am a regular 50+ parent living in NOVA - a professional college-educated woman who admittedly has become a bit addicted to DCUM but more so because during these turbulent/polarized times, I final myself more and more politically orphaned.

I am also an English major and do tend to ramble at times with too much writing. I never had any trouble writing 10-20 page papers in college

Yeah. In 2020, she was considered one of the worst candidates before she was anointed. Now that she's been anointed for a second time, it was suddenly like, "We're all completely behind and completely inspired by our undemocratically-selected representative!" To me, it shows that Democrats will rally behind a bag of pinecones if they're told to do so.

More and more Republicans are sick of Trump. All he cares about is himself and what *he* can get out of a given situation. And Vance is an effing pansy.

Not sure what anything I said had to do with Trump, but ok.

And also people are grossed out by the reports of Trump shitting himself and having to wear adult diapers. It doesn’t matter if he’s “elderly,” people find it repellent.

I'm sure it was strategic to get Biden to bow out on account of his failing mind, because Democrats could live with spending the next few years calling out their enemies for lacking a mind or having "elderly problems."

If Democrats had waited until some of his other flaws had come to the forefront, it would have become socially awkward to have to accuse everyone who disagreed with them of touching underage girls and having an international-scale death and destruction fetish.

Well OK, but either way a lot of people (including some Republicans) find the reports of Trump shitting himself on planes, in hallways, etc, and having to wear adult diapers to be pretty unappealing. They don’t care that he is old, it’s still gross.

I still find it amazing that the only meaningful attack that Democrats could muster on Trump's VP pick was a satirical report that he'd f'd a couch.

I think it’s mostly that people hate Trump. He’s truly jumped the shark. They just don’t like (rather than hate) Vance, he’s got creeper/incel/loser vibes.

The same people who hysterically emote about disinformation, misinformation, and Trump’s “lies” are flogging the Vance couch thing about. It makes the whole russian troll argument performative and null.

OMG! SOMEONE MADE A FUNNY!!!

We better throw out women’s rights.

DP. Not entirely clear who is throwing out of women’s rights with more alacrity, the Democrats or the Republicans. Both parties are leaning in hard on misogyny.

It’s very clear for those of living in reality.

The reality where millions of women have already lost access to healthcare.

I am sure that’s what you believe is true.

It’s too Trumpy here now. It’s not worth engaging with the trolls who aren’t posting in good faith.

I don’t mind the trolls, far-left, or far-right, as much as I do the heavily biased moderation particularly on fact based statements. Once I saw this insane tipping the scales, I drastically reduced forum participation.

I disagree with Jeff profoundly on some issues — and I think he is absolutely on the wrong side of history for some of them — but he is really pretty clear about his political leanings and subsequent moderation. Of course you are also free to respond exactly as you did, too.

Completely agree. I understand this is Jeff's website and he is free to moderate as he pleases but there is a heavy left leaning bias on here. One issue I believe he is misguided on is transgender issues. So many posts get deleted and it's difficult to have an honest conversation.

Unfortunately, we can’t discuss certain topics because they draw the bigots out of the woodwork. People who are disrespectful and throw out hateful comments as “a DiFfeReNt oPinIoN”.

The problem is comments like “biological males shouldn’t compete in women’s sports” is not a hateful or bigoted comment, but gets labeled as such.

+100

You would be right to get flagged as hateful and bigoted when you try and call Imane Khelif "tr@ns" and "a man in the boxing ring beating up women" when she was born female, has female on her birth certificate, grew up female, has never ever in her life been identified as anything other than female, including numerous medical exams and tests - UNTIL she beat a Russian boxer, after which the IBA, which is Russian-run and BANNED from the Olympics due to corruption, declared, WITHOUT SHOWING PROOF, that she supposedly "flunked a gender test" and has ever since been sketchy, evasive and generally non-respondent to any followup inquiries.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/olympic-boxer-imane-khelif-is-neither-trans-nor-male/ar-AA1oidMS?ocid=BingNewsSerp

And then this poor woman got mercilessly cyberbullied and harassed by ranks of deranged right wingers, much like the ones who post here.

I agree that this should be flagged as hateful and bigoted. But that is not the example PP posted - what PP posted is definitely Freedom of Speech protected by the First Amendment.

However, Freedom of Speech is not protected by the First Amendment when it includes obscenity, child pornography, [b]defamatory speech, false advertising, true threats, and fighting words that incite violence.[/b]

Which is why Imane Khelif actually has a basis for filing a lawsuit for libel, defamation and cyberbullying.

However, expressing general statements on issues based on one's personal beliefs is Freedom of Speech protected by the First Amendment. As such, even if you don't agree with them, you are obliged to tolerate them so long as they don't cross the line.

DP. I have said nothing of the sort. However, I do not believe it is just, fair, or right for women with XY chromosomes who went through male puberty to be fighting or competing with XX women who went through female puberty. It was not right when Caster Semenya did it, and it is not right now. I don’t really care what her birth certificate says. Those are simply not reliable any more.

Apparently this is a “bigoted” opinion to the far leftists though, who believe biology is imaginary.

This is all irrelevant. The First Amendment has nothing to do with Jeff’s moderation, which is the issue at hand here. Jeff can delete what he likes. He doesn’t have to tolerate any post he doesn’t like, regardless of the First Amendment.

Also, just for the record, the First Amendment has nothing to do with French law, which is where Khelif has filed.

You consider that a meaningful attack? It was a joke. Most Democrats recognized it as a joke.

For "meaningful" objections (not attacks), I offer him falsifying his origins, belittling actual Appalachians, making a career of selling himself to the highest bidder and saying whatever he has to to close the deal, holding a deeply regressive view of women . . . do you want more, or are you savoring traits that you, mysteriously, find appealing?

Everyone knows the couch thing is a funny joke, but the rest of it is just a bit of his serious problems.

And the dolphin thing is real.
