22. You know things are already depressing enough. Do you really need to accuse DU members of being collaborators?

I'm depressed as hell. I still have my twitter account because there are resources on it that are not on Blue Sky.
The City of San Antonio is on twitter and not Blue Sky
My Democratic State Rep is on twitter and not Blue Sky.

I'm not a Nazi collaborator.

I'm depressed as hell.
We don't need to be called Nazi collaborators when we're down.

Things are really bad right now and now we're suddenly Nazi collaborators? After I worked eight year resisting Trump? How I worked my butt for Beto, for Biden, for Beto again, for Kamala....and we're "collaborators"??

Is Kamala a collaborator? She's on twitter. Biden's on twitter.

I'm not sure how reddit works, but if reddit goes to an all out X ban, then it will hurt X signficantly. LeftInTX Jan 22 #2

We're not the size of reddit. All that will happen here, is that less information will be available. LeftInTX Jan 22 #6
