The entire thread is a political thread. I actually think your comment put it in perspective. If they don't want politics being discussed, they should cut off that thread at the start. Do they think people can discuss that topic without politics coming up?
Good for you, longprime. That phrase seems redundant to me but evidently a CC mod nose can differentiate the two.
Speaking of noses, I'd guess that around mid-summer of next year those same super-keen ones are going to be bent, busted, over-worked, out-of-joint, full of the fingers of another bunch of disgruntled banned members.
