xxpwell yeah, that's an abortion - no argument, but it doesn't make Bama/Blair apologist twitter any more appetising!

So you are for relegating said psychopaths to their own forum or no?

All joking aside, there seems to be a non-trivial amount of no voters whose argument is "the quality of discussion on politics threads is horrible, so let's make sure they are perpetually at the top of ILE".

Of all the possible outcomes to this poll/question, that must be the most far-fetched. I wonder how you came to this conclusion at all.

voted yes as part of a social experiment but bizarro gazzarra is right, politics spill into everything. would you put the us open thread there? maybe we need a "politics" tag like a "NSFW" tag you could put on threads to help people avoid those threads (joeks tag)
― the late great, Sunday, 9 September 2018 22:38 (five years ago) link
Well, I'm genuinely surprised that there are so many strong no votes, did not expect that given that so many people seem bothered by the persistence of politics threads
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Sunday, 9 September 2018 22:40 (five years ago) link
no need for a politics tag as long as we can see user names on sna

I have never seen this expressed here, but maybe I don't have the right decoder glasses.

I spend half of half of my time having nervous breakdowns and worrying about surviving under the most (arguably) far-right Tory government we've had in the last century. And then realising how lucky I am because I have one terminally ill and one severely disabled in my house, and they haven't worked out how to murder us yet! But no matter what happens I will hate these people and their apologists forever, even if I win the lottery tomorrow.

Another option could be just renaming I Love Everything to I Love Politics and moving all the quality content to a new board.

Voting yes will trigger the article 77 process which will give us two years to negotiate the relationship between ILP and ILE. The negotiations will be spectacularly incompetent and result in ILP crashing out of ILE with no deal. Chaos will ensue.

This desire to subdivide cannot stand. I opt for dismantling all boards and all threads and make all of ilxor.com just one single thread.

As always De Subjectivisten are the front runners of this idea. We wrap the whole world and every topic imaginable into two threads: film (obv) and the shadow cabinet. It's not complicated.

Chances are slim I'd have learned about, let alone heard of, Joanna Wang, if it would have been a thread on an I Love Taiwanese-American Music borad.

I've changed my mind, I Love Politics should exist but if you post in it you're locked in and can't use any other board for 4 years.
