27 Dollars is a Senator Bernie Sanders appreciation group and community. We are folks committed to progressive, grassroots activism in local, regional, state, and national Democratic politics. We are not concerned with keeping the primary pie wars going, but we are concerned with the Democratic Party being the place for working persons to hang their collective hats. We believe wholeheartedly in both social and economic fairness -- we cannot have one without the other. In short, we want the Demo...

At this writing, 7 American states have passed laws that forbid their legislatures from considering Sharia law (and the courts are quickly deciding that these laws violate some aspects of the First Amendment). But this does not keep some of the same states for attempting to write parts of the Bible into law, because The United States is, according to them (never mind the Constitution), a Christian nation. This group will serve as a repository for diaries which document attempts by religious "co...

Atheists often feel under attack in this country, founded in secularism, yet with growing numbers of people who practice an aggressive politically charged version of Christianity. The challenge is to go beyond anger, to firmly advance a reality based perspective while effectively navigating our political social order.

Phenology is a science that anyone can practice without a lab coat, microscope, or PhD. It's the study of seasonal events such as first flowers, appearance of certain butterflies, etc. People have tracked these dates for decades -- even centuries -- and now there's a place on DK to record your own observations. A casual spot to tell what you're seeing in the park down the road or in your own back yard.

The Bernie News Roundup contains news, media, & other information related to Bernie Sanders' 2015-2016 Democratic primary campaign for president.

Community Spotlight is dedicated to finding great writing by little-known or unknown Community members whose work hasn't gotten the visibility it deserves. We rescue and promote their stories based on the original vision set out by Susan Gardner, who single-handedly began our mission in 2006.

Our mission is to maintain the list of Daily Kos In-Real-Life events around the nation and to encourage IRL groups to form for camaraderie, precinct organizing and political action in each Congressional District.

The Cranky Users group was founded in 2011 for DKos users who thought DK4 was scary or weird or hard to figure out. We made our way through DK4 and DK5, and now we're back! We're still gonna hold hands, help each other out, ask dumb questions, and laugh ourselves silly, this time as we navigate the jump to WordPress. Follow the group or the #CrankyUsers tag.

We as a party and a movement need to reflect on the fact that we actually need candidates on the ballot to win elections at the local level. Many offices run unopposed. One of Daily Kos's greatest strengths as a community is to serve as a collective-think-tank-activist platform. Join us to document the Congressional candidate filing deadlines in your state and to propose who we can recruit. We can crowdsource this. Let the research, brainstorming, and outreach begin. Who wants to join us in org...

If you know what DFH stands for, this is likely the place for you. Post your ultra-liberal rant! Post your stoned insights, your demands for single-payer and government regulation and doing what's right for the people even if it's not good for the corporation's bottom line! This is your place! Peace, love soul, and party on!

This group will discuss the law. In particular law and politics.

We explore the tools of DK5, find workarounds, share, discuss, demonstrate, learn, practice, and make mistakes. We empower members of the community to connect, unite, and act. Current project: Exploration of Sig Lines: Concepts, design, storage, and placement.

To advocate effectively for repeal or passage of firearms legislation we must first know and understand current law and policy, and how both are implemented, where we live. There is enormous variability across the country; the relative utility/relative risk of firearms is different on a 500 acre ranch in Montana than for a 1000 square foot apartment in New York. State and local laws reflect that diversity. We will discuss firearms law and policy with an emphasis on the many historical ethics an...

We are the Anti-War Left. We're sittin' here on the Group W bench, talking peace, peace-mongering and anti-imperialism with a side order of civil rights, and playin' with our tags: peace, peacemaking, nonviolence, pacifism, pacifist, war, antiwar, anti-militarism, resistance, conscientious objection, refuseniks, imperialism, anti-imperialism.

Once the name of a regularly-appearing series on DK3, History for Kossacks is now a DK4 group blog dedicated to the discussion and diarying of all things historical. Topics range from the impact of a'a' lava on ancient Hawaii to Zoroastrianism in Persia; time frame is from Australopithecus to Zulu hours today - so come on in to this dusty cave full of moldering tomes, have a seat in an overstuffed chair, and let's talk history!

Welcome to J Town! A place to hang out, promote posts, check on the weather (and brag about yours!) and waste, er, spend a little time. Bring your music, your news stories, your life stories, and, above all, your sense of humor. Sidewalks rolled up on Mar. 7, 2014.

This group opposes classism, a system of oppression based on class designations in which a pervasive ideology of class superiority & inferiority provides the foundation for structural inequalities, intergroup conflict, discrimination, and prejudice. The core processes and structures of classism are the same as they are for other forms of prejudice and systems of oppression like racism and sexism. Classism, like other forms of bigotry, is explicitly prohibited on DKos. Not only is classism moral...

This group will focus on the issue of LGBT rights and the efforts to limit them by homophobes throughout the world. Initially, it will concentrate on Russian homophobia and the Winter Olympics in Sochi, but as time passes we will zero in on cases of legalized homophobia around the world (including instances in the United States as well). The keywords of this group will be LGBT Rights, free speech and homophobia.

This is the group for the pooties, woozles, and birdies people and if you don't like them and don't see the purpose of us being here, please, do not bother us. Just remember what Nurse Kelley and Kos said - "Don't f**k with the pootie people." Started by the Pootie Queen triciawyse, who sadly left us too soon, now run by the Pootie Princess: The Marti. Long live all the pooties, and the woozles, and the birdheds, and their people too.

A forum for pointing out and responding to the non-science and anti-science material that appears daily in the media. From simple mistakes and ancient astronaut foolishness, to deliberate obfuscation and assault on scientists, science is under attack and Science Matters is fighting back.
