After the election or the year is over it’d probably be smart to lock any politics thread
I think the failure of those was like
lack of moderation
This is entirely gut, the same gut…
My thoughts on threads are that they kinda just exist for the one conversation before being inevitably forgotten.
i disagree, i think sometimes those threads just naturally lead to very Spirited Debate to put it lightly
I think it depends heavily on hte community in question
ok yeah I’m probably wrong
I think about mu debate and how that is a shithole
and that has moderation
Omg what topic did they pursue
pretty much every topic under the sun
I was told by mu that it was fine and now I’m being told it’s not fine
would work cover this
idk how that works
That doesn’t look fine to me, but I’m not a doctor so.
The best advice I can give is “If you’re concerned/unsure, go to a doctor” but healthcare is expensive in other places

Idk I don’t think quarantining it is a good idea for a variety of reasons I don’t wanna spend 10 minutes typing out for no one to read. It’s going to come up naturally and no one is going to want to switch threads to make a topical comment on the other thread like it would just deadend the conversation or make the person who would make an anodyne political statement otherwise stay silent. I think things come up all the time that some of us would prefer were on something else, but as long as it doesn’t become a daily reoccurring problem there’s no need to be heavy-handed.
i agree with resident commie nbowie this is good argument for why “no memes in general” is the worst rule in discord servers
We should add a “no tutuu in cookie thread” rule i think
Is that your pitch to become a moderator?
It’s definitely a part of it
