Re: Does the forum need so much politics?

It seems to me that not a single day passes without a new discussion about Trump, even about his son's statements. I understand that someone is obsessed with politics, and with Trump, among other things, but does it have to be to this extent?
Ok, the elections are in the US, but certainly, this is not primarily a forum only for US people or maybe I'm wrong, I even think that they are in the minority here.

One user has opened two voluntary signature campaigns, one for Trump and one for Kamala. I would say that this is the lowest point of this forum.
If it is a joke, it is very bad and someone without a sense of humour should not engage in it.

[OPEN] Kamala 2024 (unofficial) Signature Campaign
[OPEN] Trump 2024 (unofficial) Signature Campaign
(Both campaigns should be moved to offtopic or politics & society, they certainly have no place in the services section where services are offered with payment in Bitcoin.)

These things have nothing to do with cryptocurrencies or Bitcoin. The fact that someone said a word or two about it (exclusively for personal benefit) does not mean that everyone should be obsessed with it.
I get your point but you have to consider that this is an international forum and people all around the world are very political. For example, I live far from the USA but hear talk about US politics daily from family members to neighbours to coworkers.

The result of the presidential elections of the United States will affect the whole world and at the same time, it will affect Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, so there is lots of discussion about Politics because of their influence on crypto and the recent things that are happening, including attack on mixers, ETF approvals, crypto taxes, mining regulations and etc...

One presidential candidate even states that he will buy 500 Bitcoin every day for years, Trump wants the rest of the Bitcoins to be mined in the United States. Bitcoin became part of presidential elections, so you know...
