the irony is that this is what was happening on /oat/ before /chat/ became the place for politics. it really goes to show how absurd the amount of political threads people make is, and I do agree on the cyclic thing.
like, I don't think politics should be limited to just one or even two threads on /chat/, that wouldn't really be fair, but sometimes almost the entire front page is politics, and on top of that a lot of the time people make threads about the same political subjects before the original thread is anywhere near the bump limit.
maybe there could be something like a designated thread for each country's politics, or if that's not specific enough, then a designated thread for Trump stuff, and a designated thread for more state/local news stories, and a thread for non-American stuff etc.
but it's complicated, the word "politics" applies to a massive amount of topics, it's almost like saying "rock music", there's like a ton of subgenres.
I don't have a problem with politics threads at all, I just hide most of them, but it does get annoying when I'm scrolling through like a dozen of them.
