Kicked Off Progressive Forum

Post by Martin Hash » Thu Jun 28, 2018 11:27 am

I got booted from the local Progressive forum I post into. Me, a Democratic candidate for the U.S. House. This is the second time. The first time I mentioned it on a Conservative forum and somebody back-peddled, made excuses and publicly put me back on, but this time I got removed, Unfriended and Blocked by the majority of the posting members. (I'm pretty sure a lot of the Lurkers like me posting.)

The Virtual Civil War continues, and it's not Democrats vs. Republicans - it's status quo vs. budding-Marxists.

Dang, Martin, what did you say?

Were you going so far as to support (or not condemning) a SCOTUS justice deciding to retire from his lifetime Gibs gig after 30 years of "service"?

Or did you not offer enough support for the 28 year old communist candidate for the House from NY?

Man, when I hear a kid crying I just want to find her fatassed momma and slap her fat face just before I buy the kid an ice cream and rap duke to the kid about something cool that kids like.

Usually I just grit my teeth and hit the road.

My hope is that this will eventually lead to the vast majority who are not on either fringe coming together to and making these loons irrelevant. I am a fiscal conservative that is to the left on some social issues and to the right on some others. I am willing to compromise with those I disagree with, as long as the bridge is not too far and we can meet somewhere in the middle. I think the majority of people, right and left feel close to the same. The biggest obstacle to getting the country to some kind of peace is the media and the existing political structure.

I was banned from posting a while back on a forum that used to be open to all views. Over time the fringe left slowly took over. Today in that forum someone like Martin would be treated like a Trump supporter and cyber-bullied until he either quit or got banned. I still lurk over there once in a while and it's disturbing to read some of the stuff that's posted in there with no rebuttal whatsoever.

Not surprising, Progressives are intolerant.

I'm sure Marty scares the shit out of them with his Verboten Speech

People in the middle are going to have nowhere to go as the ground rapidly vanishes from under their feet. The far right is going to be driving the bus. But its better than the fucking commies

This is pretty much the gist of it, though it takes epic levels of hypocrisy to ban a candidate to the U.S. House from your own Party.

Wait what's the far right? Because to listen to establishment dems they think Trump is as far right as it gets. They have no idea just how far left they have gotten, it's like they are on a raft in the middle of the sea and because they see nothing but water all around they think they haven't moved but they have.
