Manny and Steven, sittin' in a tree...

[merrily]

55. Thank you. Skinner leaves that to the hosts of each group and/or a DU jury.

I just saw the alerts. Whether he amuses every member of his audience or not, MannyGoldstein is known in the DU community for satire and parody and the Original Post is clearly a satirical reference to Leser's two very different pieces about Hillary Clinton.

I haven't finished reading the thread yet, but I have already seen that most of the hosts of this group, including both the OP and the head host of the group, have already posted on this thread. I guess that means a majority of hosts have implicitly voted not to lock the thread or block MannyGoldstein from the group.

A DU jury has also already let the post stand.

No system pleases everyone all the time. For better or worse, DU seems to have already decided that the OP is not disruptive meta. FWIW, I always thought OJ killed Nicole and Ron, but a jury of his peers decided otherwise and, in the system that applied to him, that meant he went free.

I might add, I've seen a lot of ugly meta in other groups on this board that stands. I hope the Populist Group can survive the ONE and only OP of this kind that I've ever seen here.
