I've seen two posts in just the last hour about the "flood" of US politics posts and not a single post about US politics posted in a few days.

Either I must have the users posting that stuff blocked, or someone's making a mountain out of a molehill on a personal vendetta.

And those who know, know I am always everywhere. If it existed, I'd have commented on it.

...does that mean you've blocked me?

that's genuinely kind of upsetting -- i think you're a really cool person

You're not blocked. 👍

I identify with this all too much, and I agree.

Can confirm, I see you (both) everywhere

It's true, if you or FlyingSquid weren't there, it didn't happen.

with no ill will to OP, their comment history shows that they have been involved in heated debates in a grand total of… two. political posts on 196 in the past few days.

i believe OP is misidentifying the issue. trolls. it’s just trolls. :(
