I know many people on this blog boycott Daily Kos because of abusive Obama supporters but I do occasionally post there because I believe I can educate some people but I rarely read the comments which are usually 100% anti-Clinton and often abusive.
I just visited Daily Kos to post statistics about HRC's demographic support and I found out I was banned. The last post I wrote was a description of the extreme corruption of Chicago politics and I said that considering the level of corruption in that city Obama should release his Senate records. It was an informative, valuable report in my opinion, yet when I tried to find out why I was banned be reading comments I read a post in which someone implied my diary was not democratic and warned me that I could be banned for what he alleged was undemocratic which apparently in his opinion is revealing anything that might in any way imply Obama may not be perfect. On the contrary, it is undemocratic to research the past of one candidate (Clinton) and not research the past of another. Daily Kos is undemocratic because they ban information that does not show Obama as perfect and constantly publish information (often false) about Clinton imperfections. If they keep acting unfair then that is preventing unity.
The post that was not acceptable to Daily Kos:
