That's why they criticize Daily KOS and write all these negative posts. Why do they believe the gibberish from FOX news and Trump's relentless barrage of lies? It's simple: Because they can't think for themselves -- they lack basic intelligence and the ability to reason. The problem is that you can't fix stupid, so I just glance over their ludicrous posts and laugh.
I receive DailyKos newsletter and I often sign petitions of theirs which is fine. Their online site where users comment in response to articles however is outrageously unfair and severely censors any opinion different from theirs even if your comment is free from foul language, slurs, threats, or anything remotely offensive. The administrators also refused to delete account as requested. I've unsubscribed to their newsletter and refuse to have anything to do with them. They are trash.

Tip for consumers:
Don't create profile to write comments because it will be permanent and comments are unfairly censored and members banned for no valid reason.
They censor comments and articles. They purge en masse people who are truly willing to fight for America and democracy. They are hostile to rational people, atheists and others who don't believe in archaic sky gods. Many of their commenters are pathetic wimps and losers who act like kids in a high school clique. Lots of sock puppets. I also suspect they report people who are "too radical." F off, Daily Kos.
Full of poorly written, topics which do not fairly or reasonably report on the topics at hand many trash articles which are nothing more than smear pieces, and they show lack of real journalism skills. Plus they spam people terribly. I didn't sign up for thier garbage but keep getting it sent to me over and over.
The Daily Kos, in my estimation, is trying to take over some of the same causes that other advocacy organizations (MoveOn.org, Avaaz, National Resources Defense Council, & Sierra Club and others) have done so well over many years. My fear is that the Daily Kos will crowd out the outstanding track records of the established organizations listed above who have proved themselves to be highly credible and successful. Please stay away from Daily Kos and stick with the advocacy groups we know we can trust.
While I support much of their progressive actions, they use underhanded spamming tactics. By signing one petition, they automatically add your email to several other lists without your consent because they don't give you a choice not to subscribe. Sneaky at best, possibly illegal. Their unsubscribe method is also underhanded: no way to unsubscribe from all their lists at once, requiring multiple actions to unsubscribe one at a time. Totally deceitful.
Tip for consumers:
Don’t sign up for any of their emails.
Daily Kos will PERMANENTLY BAN anyone expressing an opinion that contradicts or attacks the philosophy of the Leftists. Afraid to face opposing opinions they will quickly prevent anyone who argues in support of conservative opinions from ever posting again. They are nothing more than a leftist safe space.
The Daily Kos is now controlled by Marxists and Bolsheviks dedicated to the total destruction of the USA. Their articles are party propaganda for the Communists. Every word is a lie and part of mass disinformation and psychological operations war fare. Avoid the Daily Kos. They are Liars and Bolsheviks, with one purpose which is the total destruction of America. Another wake up call to those who respect the Law and tolerance is that those controlling Daily Kos hate straight people. If you don't have some Trans agenda or non straight agenda, they hate you and want you destroyed. I had no idea just how nefarious and harmful they are. You have to be exactly whatever they are, or they hate you.
Tip for consumers:
Daily Kos is far more harmful than I had realized. They are full of hate for anyone not exactly like them.
I find Kos pales in comparison for aggregating political news article published elsewhere along with excerpts to RawStory. The later recently added original articles. The pluses are that Kos allows anybody to post their own stories, called diaries, and that there's often thought provoking discussing in the comments. The minus is that community posted stories rarely include original material and opinion, in fact they don't even have an opinion section like major newspapers. For my take on why my story got me banned, with the story removed from the site, without any reason sent to me, can be found if you Google my name, Hal Brown, and a keyword like Daily Kos or Trump. That will get you to my blog.
Tip for consumers:
I do not find Daily Kos to be a particularly useful site for political news or opinion.There are better websites to do this with. If you want to post your own material it is the only liberal website I know of where any registered member of what they call their community can do so and potentially get up to 2000 readers and over 200 comments as I did a about a dozen times with my over 1,700 posts there before I was banned without them letting me know why.
Extreme censorship and intolerance towards any opposing or independent views. Anti-democratic values. Too much group think behavior and bullying tactics promoting a reckless "cancel culture". They do not offer any refunds on subscription membership dues and their paid staff is practically nonresponsive and unavailable.
I wrote several articles for this website that were actual journalism, not the clickbait 50-word cut and paste articles you mostly see there. My articles got a lot of views and likes but a small group of bizarre people flagged them into oblivion and then they were all removed. I tried to keep visiting the site but the viruses and pop-up ads embedded in it made me stop. Somebody could get rich creating a community blog site with real journalistic standards and the vibe of the Meidas Touch youtube network. But Daily Kos is a sad joke.
The news articles are usually fairly good, though the reporters often miss important events. Diaries are often of less quality. But the comments are often naive and biased. I had enjoyed free and open discourse at Firedog Lake for several years, but when that closed the only alternative was, sadly, DailyKos. Other commenters there frequently lack the acumen to understand my posts; and if someone makes an observation they don't agree with, especially from an actual progressive stance, the moderators are quick to ban that person. So, the website poses as a "liberal" forum, but in reality is quite provincial, pedantic and conservative, pernicious to the progressive cause.
They have a multi-tier comment moderation. Users who pay or have more "mojo" have more rights in the comment section. So if more people falsely accuse you of a violation of the "Rules of the Road" you comments get blocked. There is no attempt to contact you about the comments just the having enough people falsely accusing you of a violation and your are block.
I read blogs from both the Red and Blue sides to get a balance.
Some posts on each are utter garbage - but reading both gives insight.
Kos is no better or worse - but I have found their information - particularly the insights and narrative into the Trump presidency - not only useful but endlessly entertaining.
Tip for consumers:
Use your critical thinking skills - there is much to be learned on this site if you keep an open mind.
Beware! The content doesn't match the moderation which is completely nonsensical, arbitrary and may be related to the site owner's dislike of Sanders. Users who support Sanders are flagged and banned. They are harming the Democratic party and progressives should not waste their time. Also don't create an account once they have your email they refuse to let users delete their accounts. Stay away, they are so hateful they will turn blue into red.
Daily kos is run by a group of sissies masquerading behind incompetent "censors". It's a good thing it's not published on paper because wiping your anus with it is about all its good for. Plus, the "writers" basically suck.
Their site does not allow any comments that contradict or criticize Democratic Party or progressive ideology. If if you so much as hint that you might not be fully supportive of progressive politics or criticize their political stars such ad Maxine Waters or AOC you are threatened with banishment from the side or even are banished out right. Then you are no longer able to post any further comments. I've never seen this site so afraid of this agreement as this one. Conservative websites are encouraging to people who disagree with them and engage in vigorous discussions without resorting to banning open you say don't like. What a what a bunch of wimps Daily Kos members are!. Everybody there is walking on egg shells terrified of saying something that's politically incorrect or goes against their narrative or orthodoxy and being banned from the site. The site is nothing more than a safe place for wimpy Leftists ans Marxists who are afraid to vigorously argue with conservatives or other people that point out the error of their ways. They say that 50% or more of progressive liberal women have mental illness or are neurotic. It seems that they all must be posting at the DaikyKos it's pretty amusing to read some of the ridiculous lefty comments on the site. Don't waste your time with them.
So I've been watching Daily Kos comments for awhile. I signed up today, and gave some "recommended stars" to some comments, and then made some comments of my own. I'm a senior citizen -- not a "Bernie Bro" by any means. I pointed out that there were similarities between trump and Biden that made me uncomfortable, and that I didn't feel young people would ever get out to vote for Biden. I also said that I wanted real change not just the same old status quo. I was almost immediately taken off and have not been allowed to reply or comment since. Daily Kos is biased and controlling the narrative but pretending these discussions are open. The corporate head of KOS is apparently endorsing Biden. This site is nothing but a centrist/corporate/DNC type of a thing with just a tiny spattering of mildly pro-Bernie / worried about Biden comments. Stay away from this site! It is all phony and staged, and it is impossible to unsubscribe -- they ignore your unsubscribe requests (I've tried to unsubscribe in the past many times and again this afternoon). So I still have tons of nasty comments coming in saying how spiteful Bernie Sanders' supporters are that they would not vote for Biden just to get rid of trump, etc., etc., (i. E. tons of B. S.). There are some glaringly false comments suggesting Sanders voted for the Iraq War just like Biden (which he did not), and you can't correct them. It was ok for me to be called all sorts of terrible things by people commenting, but not ok for me to say why Bernie Sanders is the better choice and more electable than Biden by far. Something is really wrong with that. In fact, it is un-American. There are still comments coming into my inbox saying I am a "Russian troll" straight from Moscow (and I cannot answer them)! Considering my grandparents left Eastern Europe in the early 1900's and faced considerable hardship to begin a life in America, that is very painful.
That's why they criticize Daily KOS and write all these negative posts. Why do they believe the gibberish from FOX news and Trump's relentless barrage of lies? It's simple: Because they can't think for themselves -- they lack basic intelligence and the ability to reason. The problem is that you can't fix stupid, so I just glance over their ludicrous posts and laugh.
Have been reading daily kos for awhile and began noticing the posters are mostly the same and they speak to each other with the familiarity of a club. Which is fine, until you ask some questions they don't want to hear. Have you ever read the rules of the road over there? What hogwash. So if an established poster tells you "you can die mad"... that's fine... but push the issue, try to expand your question and you are dismissed like you're nothing to them. They appear to break down into the bullies and the bowers... thanks but no thanks
I'm a big girl who has seen bullies before and will again... just always startling when it happens where you thought they were better than that.
What kind of a publication allows LIBELOUS and DEFAMATORY articles? I guess it's called the DAILY KOS which doesn't seem to be a real newspaper because it publishes articles that are complete lies and written by hacks that don't seem to be journalists. They put up information by people who post on Twitter (yeah, Twitter...) to try to docs people (TRY being the key word). They don't care whether the information is correct or not. They published an article with a bunch of content that looks like a person was stalked for years, then associated a picture of somebody in a mask using an anonymous screen name to a person's real name they found on public records, with absolutely NO PROOF or verification that the name is correct. Then they obtained photos illegally and used them without permission to try to ruin somebody's life. They are in the business of docs'ing, the problem is that they don't care whether the docs'ing information is correct or not. WHAT A DISGRACE THESE PEOPLE ARE.
None of this garbage is true. The most horrible piece of journalism to be printed. I feel stupidity has taken over the subscribers of this waste of space.
Liberals are doomed. And I'm a liberal. I went to DK looking for liberal friends, and instead found a bunch of total jerks. Very hurt and disappointed. Honestly a huge waste of time.
This is the kind of place where a person can write a solid, well-researched, entertaining article about any subject from environmentalism to trickle-down economics... but if the author employs some generic phrase that some of the liberals there object to, that's all they'll focus on.
Most of the users at DK have been there for years, and I have to say that most of them are pretty decent, intelligent, and informed souls. Some are even entertaining.
But there are groups within the group there, so they tend to ignore and patronize new users. They also spend a remarkable time rehashing churlish jealousies and petty rivalries, since almost everybody there is in competition to write a "diary" that's featured on the front page.
80% of the folks are good, but you'll never get to know them.
15% of them are "Liberal Stinkers" who seem to live to be insulted and see racism in everything.
And about 5% of them are total jerks.
A worthless site, on the whole, all it does is generate advertising revenue for the owner, who is so detached from the scene that he can't even see how many of the jerks are literally driving new members away.
So... your mileage may vary, but the Daily Kos is hardly the liberal oasis it pretends to be.
It's a childish, petty, non-sensical (no block buttons) little corner of the universe filled with attention whores and virtue signalers.
Puke.
This site is a good one for letting people know what is going on with the United States, the government, and the people. Thank you
They started the wave of liberal poseurs w who's real mission is to destroy marginalize criticis of corporate dems out of existence.
It appeals to stereotypically smug, hateful hand puppets of the elitist left, the kind of phonies who populate the town in "Get Out!"
If the "members" don't kike your story, they report you and gang up on you. Just because they don't agree with your opinion. They seriously suppress your 1st amendment rights. Shame on them.
News. Community. Action.
