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.
I understand that the US economy has a huge influence on the entire world economy, and cryptocurrencies are already part of the economy (due to the financial influence of institutional investors and even some countries), which allows for some connection between the US economy and bitcoin, but I believe that excessive discussion of current US politics is unnecessary on a forum dedicated to crytocurrencies.

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.
I wouldn't like to compare, but if signature campaigns dedicated to mixers are prohibited on the forum, then similar joke (or not) campaigns of politicians also have no place on the forum.

(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.)
In my opinion, this would be the right place to put these signature campaigns (with similar themes), and even better - make these signatures visible only in those relevant sections, like politics and off-topic.

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.
It is so truly.
