I just want to congratulate all BMG members for successfully ignoring a certain troll-generated post about pipelines. This is the best response to such things, and I hope it is a harbinger of future shunning.
Hope I’m not jinxing it with this…
Please share widely!
I’ve backed off of my BMG reading of late because way too many posts revolved around just one person.
I should also note on the plus side that the performance of the site has been quite good for a while. Additional kudos for that!
I almost made this comment myself directly to DfW’s latest nonsense but I didn’t want to break the non comment streak. The longer his latest post sits there with 0 comments, the bigger my smile gets. I was excited to return to BMG this morning and see that small victory for reason. Thank you, kirth, for your leadership in this area.
…who have successfully refused the troll bait! Eventually, he will fish elsewhere.
seriously, “Rand Paul to the rescue of Detroit” AND “the Canadian pipeline” in one day. It just is making my skin crawl not to respond to this stupidity.
Reward yourself for your strength of will. Have some pie.

…send $5.00 to your favorite candidate or cause! Or put a quarter in a jar, and when it reaches $5.00, send it then.
Dan asked for helpful hints in Ernie’s latest diary, and I posted Gollum’s “leave now and never come back” in reply. $5.00 is now winging its way to the DailyKos year-end fundraiser from me!
The pipeline post has fallen off the front page into oblivion, with no comments. I call that success. The other one is hanging on the brink, also with no comments. Pie for everyone!
