I would be inclined to agree with you, however I have just now skimmed through some of those threads and I have scarcely found the behaviour you profess to be true. Maybe I'm missing something. Give me examples fam

It depends what board you use, /qa/ and /pol/ are big ones when it comes to this meanwhile /a/ will lose their shit if you even think about posting a wojak or pepe.

What's all this talk about glowies showing up? Did something happen to make them be here more than usual?

I was talking about the EandH threads. I don't use 4chan anyways

those memes aren't particularly right wing or left wing. I'm guessing that you're suggesting that /a/ is a left wing board, but I don't really know
 
What is the extent to which people here would extend 'politics' to?
For instance, there are many threads tied deeply to troons, which are deeply embeded with the politics that surround them.
There are many lolcows with deep political opinions, are political personalities, or who are in politics (like Wu). How would these be handled?
I'm not saying that making the site "lolcow only" would be bad, but where does the line get drawn? It'd be very hard to discuss Wu and Yaniv without politics since so much drama surrounding them is political.

Oh Jesus Christ, it was SIG. I didn't even know that. It was retarded as fuck, posting what he did, but it's clear that it was his usual braindead shitposting going over the top.

Hopefully now he’ll learn his lesson. Even without that, he’s been pushing everything too close to the line for some time, such as the Ratspeaker saga.

To avoid rules-lawyer faggotry a mixture of "I know it when I see it" and "lolcow only" would probably work.

I think talking politics would be okay if it still involved the lolcows specifically effected by them, but not having actual boards, and threads dedicated to politics in general.

We're here to freak watch, not politisperg. Twitter/Parler/Voat/Gab whatever is better for that shit.
We find out each other's political leanings and it bleeds into other areas, creates derision and enmity.

If A&N gets shut down, there's still going political spergs, except without a place to contain them.
However, we'll get to see how the people who said A&N was making the site 'unfun' react when nothing changes.
I'm willing to go either way.

How do people have not figured out how to run a community with the 2010s as precedent to all sorts of fuckery, gayops and the literal war against Social Justice just so we're having to deal with internal problems? Come on, there must be a science to this.
 
I can't really say I approve of the /pol/-lite turn A&N took after Tarrant drew in a bunch of 8chan refugees. They aren't housebroken. Making it worse are the trolls who wind them up and get them sperging about Jews or pedos or whatever. Your basic imageboard call and answer nonsense with the bait threads.

The spirit of the board should have always been laughing at dumb shit in the news. Not being an ideological hugbox full of lazy drive-by hot takes by "ironic" Nazis. That shit should have stayed in the chans. A lot of us are here and not there for a reason.

Well the Spedsidential thread was in deep thoughts and should be closed down if you wanna deal with the crazies, but I don't see a particular issue with it considering how moderated it is. There's more than enough A&N threads to accompany anybody wanting otherwise.

I think closing down A&N would be dumb cause a lot of users only come for that and it would leave people bringing their politics to new threads or just not using the website.
