Off-topic flamewar about US domestic politics

This community was essentially unmoderated for a while and I’ve been recently approached to take over moderation duties here. What I don’t intend to do is to change any existing rules here but to enforce what has piled up in the moderation queue.

The discussion under the recent post about spam accounts turned into a flamewar regarding US domestic politics which has literally nothing to do with the Fediverse.

With dozens of comments, I don’t have the bandwidth to sift through them individually and I’ve locked the thread. The PSA about spam accounts still stands which is why I didn’t remove the post. The accounts involved with that flamewar get a pass for this time. Consider this a warning. Further trolling about US political parties will result in bans.
