7 Days Underground (posted January 31, 2001)
Democratic Underground had its official launch on
Inauguration Day, January 20, 2001. Much has happened
since then. To mark the passing of our first week, we
felt that our faithful visitors might like to read a
SLIGHTLY EMBELLISHED first-person account of the highs

"(which isn't used much, but is used (obviously) by me

what the Dems are called in Minnesota if you want the history
contact my mailbox, no one else should have to sit through
that again."
--dflprincess
This quote was sent to me from dflprincess after I contacted
her through her mailbox:
"The Democratics in Minnesota are known as the Democratic
Farmer Labor party (members are DFLers) because back in the
1930's there was a relatively successful third party called
the Farmer Labor Party (Farmer-Laborites). They were a bit to
the left of the Democrats. They did manage to elect a
governor and some state legislators. Memory fails me if they
ever got any one elected to Congress. Though the most famous
Farmer-Laborite, Governor Floyd B Olson was getting ready for
a senate run when he died suddenly and unexpectedly of
cancer.
The Farmer Labor party was very populist especially in the
rural areas. You can still find old Farmer Labor types up on
the range. I've always thought Wellstone was probably more FL
than D.
As the Depression eased with WWII, the Farmer-Laborites began
losing ground and it finally dawned on them and the Democrats
that they were splitting their votes. So, in 1944 the two
parties merged and became the Democratic-Farmer-Labor party.
Every so often, like now, some people make noise about
dropping the Farmer-Labor from the name. A counter threat is
then usually made by the left wing that we would welcome the
name change as that would leave us free to form a new Farmer
Labor party and leave the 'new' Democrats behind."

DU Thread: CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THAT THREAD]
"This definition probably belongs in the Urban Dictionary, but I'll propose it here.
A MAGA Troll is someone who engages in any or all of the following:
1) Pitting two different factions against one another: The MAGA Troll hopes to maximize
a manufactured conflict in order to create opportunities to elevate their status.
While the MAGA Troll overtly aligns themselves with one side, they are in fact covertly
exploiting both sides as pawns.
2) Disrupting productive conversation with unproductive conversation: The MAGA Troll will
disrupt intelligent conversations with whataboutisms, pettifogging, distraction, and
flooding the zone with shit ala Steve Bannon. Unlike other types of trolling which are
more obvious, this is often done under the guise of PSEUDO-INTELLECTUALISM.
3) Reverse Psychological Projection: MAGA Trolls often employ the Pee-wee Herman retort of
'I know you are but what am I???'. Skilled MAGA Trolls will instead proactively accuse
their opponents of having their own weaknesses in an effort to deweaponize them. This
led to the apt use of the term 'psychological projection' to describe this behavior. In
an absurd attempt to de-weaponize THAT term, MAGA Trolls now simply accuse the other side of
psychologically projecting first (see PSEUDO-INTELLECTUALISM above)."

A freeper. The word was made famous in the Democratic Underground
when a picture appeared in one of the threads showing a
prowar protester basicly telling the antiwar potesters to get
smart or get out of the country. Picture to be added soon.
It's one of those, "You got to see this to believe it
pictures."
And finally, here it is:
Do a text search within the following webpage for the words
"pro-war protesters" and click on the link:

The original photo is shown posted here:

If you notice later in the webpage someone mentions "I think
the sign in question is referring to Virginia Congressman Jim
Moran who often, due to a knack for saying the wrong thing,
has often been synonymous with Moron..."
I personally believe that if he was directing the sign at
Congressman Moran he would use just "Moran" singular and not
the plural (Morans---but that's just my opinion).

"means no text. It is the absence of text. It is a great void
where text may sometimes belong, but in this particular case
does not. It is indicative of the absence of text from a
message, wherein the entire meaning is to be found in the
subject line of the post and nowhere else. It is akin to Zen
philosophy in this way. n/t (nt) (no text) does not expound,
nor continue on and on and on meaninglessly, nor does it
egaggerate. It simply is - the message is clean and swift,
conveying the greatest number of ideas in the least amount

was the 61 home runs hit by Roger Maris in 1961. That was the
year that the baseball season was expanded from 154 games to
162 and the commissioner (I think it was Ford Frick) initially
insisted that an asterisk be attached to Roger's
accomplishment to distinguish it (and also to demean it) from
the 60 home runs hit by Babe Ruth in 1927 (in 154 games).
The * was eventually eliminated (as was the record, but that
took a lot longer)."

"but the baseball * was the one placed after Roger Maris's
61st homerun. Since Babe ruth hit 60 in 154 games, the

The * has since been removed from the official Major League
record."
