Democratic Underground Sold!
DU | August 9, 2020 | Skinner

Posted on 08/15/2020 6:02:29 PM PDT by DoodleBob

I'm not certain of the rules for posting links to DU so I will simply relay the info.

I was looking to see how DU was taking Biden picking Harris, given that her prosecutorial record isn't well-liked in many leftist circles. I stumbled upon a post titled

So Long, and Thanks for All the (Swedish) Fish

In that post, the prior, long-time owner David Allen (aka skinner) disclosed that he sold DU a few weeks ago to Dave Allsopp (aka EarlG), a long-time DU Administrator and co-founder.

I searched but didn't see that this news was posted on FR.

There can be all sorts of reasons for cashing out, though it's an odd time to do so.

That is somewhere to wear at least an N99 mask. The air valve is OK because they could only be improved by our breath.

So if I get into a flame war with a fellow Freeper on this site, I can no longer tell him to “go back to DU!”

If it cost more than one Zimbabwean Dollar ( 0.00276 USD ) then it was overpriced.

Apparently the site isn’t closing so you can still tell them to go back there. I didn’t read the whole post (though FR was mentioned a few times). Frankly, I had my Shields Up and I got out asap.
