THIS ISN'T A DISCUSSION COMMUNITY! IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE OPEN ENDED QUESTIONS. MOST POLITICAL DISCUSSIONS AREN'T OPEN ENDED.

Seriously? You're this pedantic on the word discussion? Ok I will amend my first comment to:

We just had probably the most consequential election of our life and you want to ban ~~discussion~~questions and the resulting discussion in the comments?

Jeez all over again.

Most questions are "How screwed are we?, How did we fuck up this bad? Why are the Republicans so dumb?". Like, these aren't the types of questions this community was meant for bruv. And don't act like you don't know that.

Then you make a rule "no low effort political questions".

How about none at all. Go to [email protected] if you can't help yourself.
