no matter the motive of the OP. If I find anything of significance in an OP which I think is deceptive or inaccurate, I consider it my responsibility to not let it go unchallenged, even if I am eventually found wrong in my response. To remain silent invites the false impression of my tacit agreement with the OP in question, and in my mind, a non-response would facilitate the spread of information or a sentiment I find disagreeable.

If this is not what DU is all about, what is? (This statement applies equally to the hypothetical OP and my hypothetical response to it, provided there is no intended malice in either one.)

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
