My vote is very much on slow day and, given a choice, would nuke this thread entirely, if that helps.

If folk MUST steal other's work, at least pick something that is semi-uniquely them and not literally a post made while taking a shit.

Actually I was eating cereal but just liked how you put it. Sorry if I offended by reposting. Felt it was a compliment.

Yeah, this is what I'm here to protect. "BestOfLemmy" isn't a political channel. But it is a manual curation and manual sharing community.

The idea that you like a post and feel like that's enough to share is what I'd like to encourage. It gets weird with politics because now others are less inclined to post here because of this post however. But if the priority is to encourage posts and sharing here, I cannot delete a topic like this that was posted in good faith.

Its not like I'll accept all topics of political nature either, but given how close we are to the election it makes sense why you'd be thinking about this right now.
