I just need to vent. I’ve been coming to DailyKos since ~2008, and enjoy reading insightful reader-contributed diaries about the news of the day. But, I am sick to death of “Bernie” and “Hillary” diaries. There is nothing more to say. The content in these diaries is so trivial, I don’t get how anyone gives a rip. I’ve completely stopped reading them. They’re about as interesting to me as the clickbait ads at the bottom of the page.
This wouldn’t be such a big deal, but these diaries have completely overwhelmed the Recommended List for weeks, and that shows no sign of changing. There’s almost no room left for any other subject. I get it that people are passionate about the presidential primary, but these diaries do not further the discussion at all. They exist just to piss people off. I’m fine with either candidate… Heck, I’m even fine with O’Malley. I have no interest in reading some blown-out-of-proportion drivel about how they’re both liars or the polls are skewed, or whatever. Ugh – make it stop.
What makes me saddest is that the Rec List is a reflection of actual votes from DailyKos members. Who are you people? Haven’t you had enough? I just want to scream – get a life! There’s a world out there. Other things are happening. Bernie & Hillary are the same people they’ve been for years, if you don’t know them by now, another diary isn’t going to help. Vote for whichever you like better and get on with life.
Make it stop! Ugh..
