"Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich."--Napoleon

that's one of them i was talking about the other day when we were discussing the c99p links that were plastered all about DKos that day. I'll announce the Who's Online move tomorrow in my open thread so it doesn't confuse folks.

Many, many thanks to everyone who made this happen. I pretty much stopped posting at kos after being nailed by Hillbots a few times. But I can definitely get used to this. A troll-free existence, I didn't think it was possible! But here we are -- YAY US!!!

Go, Bernie!

Hello everyone! Just popped in from the BNR & got my password sorted out.

I already love the way that a glance across the user names here is like having a list of DK's Greatest Hits!

I look forward to many great discussions!

do you have some sort of script blocking program on your browser. Maybe a browser extension causing it? Did it used to do it before, you've been here for a while now?

I don't get it. It was saving them fine first thing this morning and then just ...stopped.

It's like every 3 - 5 minutes we have a new member. I look at the names, and there are many I don't even recognize. I am having a hard time keeping up with all of the activity on this site. If I thought this place was hard on a phone before, it would be impossible now. scroll, scroll, scroll, scroll, scroll

Did the move to the larger server come out of your pocket?

Please put up a donate button so that we can pay you back and then some for all of your hard work.

How great it is to see all of these many new/old names!

I'm completely blown away!

I'll put up a donation button after things settle down a bit. Right now it's taking almost all of time vetting the new registrations, gotta' keep those damn spammers out.

I haven't since Bernie joined the race. As soon as I heard about Bernie running, I flew over there to see what was up. I thought surely Kos would have been crazy happy that a real liberal had arrived. Not so much, it seems. Then yesterday, wow. The thing that really appalled me was that I perceived it as very disrespectful to Bernie. How weak of a candidate is Clinton that she needs authoritarians to carry her to the finish line prematurely? Thanks to the folks who set this site up. I am happy to donate whenever that is possible.

When the server crashed, I thought we'd all be afloat for days.

Hillary is a very weak candidate. She seriously makes Reagan look good. I have not been happy at dkos for a long long time now. I logged out and have no plan to log back in.

Been looking for a new place to maybe call home. This looks like a nice place. Thank you, and hello to my fellow Bernie Sanders supporters.

so happy he really signed up here. He hasn't said anything yet, but I know him and love his gentle kind spirit. I hope he will find the winds blowing here refreshing and wish him smooth sailing with all of us here.

Gordon walks his very smooth talk. Yes 3

I never forget how he jumped in with action to help a homeless kossack. Welcome, Sir. Your spirit and voice will be a gentle and kindred addition to rabble rousers and trouble makers here the blues angels of this place.

Great to see all the leftist DK regulars here. I'm hoping this site will flourish with interesting and engaging discourse, and without censorship.

I was quite active on Kos back in the mid 2000s. Then the 2008 election engulfed the site in all it's glory. I was an Edwards (insert sigh here) supporter, but interestingly enough,it was the vitriolic misogyny hurtled towards Clinton really horrified me (particularly from people I had respected) when there were so many truly valid arguments not to support her. As a result, I became more of a lurker, than a participant. Perhaps it is time to reverse course here and be more of a participant than lurker. Cheers and thank you.

heh, i was an edwards supporter back then, too. he was the only candidate that seemed to remember that democrats were concerned about poverty. what a shame.

glad to see you. i hope that you find an opening here to participate.

So glad you all launched this site. I just wanted to pop in and say thanks for doing this. Kos has (had ?) a lot of great contributors, but the ultimatum from the big guy was too much for me to take. Nothing like top down censorship to make people beat a path to the exit.

I look forward to reading your words of wisdom and get a few yucks a long the way.

Peace from VT...
