511. I don't generally alert, so I'll let your violations go.

Once again, I never said people aren't allowed to call people names. I said it is divisive and serves no benefit. I would like their votes in down-ballot races if nothing else. Calling them names and driving them off is counter productive.

Tolerance is a reason I am liberal. I think tolerance of other people's views is a good thing. Perhaps if we pracitices that, there would be more Dem voters and fewer Green party candidates.

People can vent. I can tell them that their venting is divisive and counter-productive. It's neat how that works.

I've been a member for 15 years. Calling people schoolyard names has never been a reasonable way to defend Democrats. It's neutral at best and divisive and counter-productive at worst. Logical arguments are a better choice. Civility is a much more attractive option.

You clearly care, or you wouldn't be hemorrhaging posts for multiple days that accuse me of doing and saying things that I am not doing or saying.

To repeat our president again, "we can disagree without being disagreeable." That's a good thing and something we should aspire to. I am not sure why you would disagree him or me. It's not an unreasonable position.
