How many posters on this Open would prefer a separate Political Board and just leave The Open to...
...sensible discussions, music, humor etc.

Can we call the TDS Board?

Some clinicians and commentators claim patients exhibit:
Obsessive thoughts about Trump
Insomnia
Panic attacks
Emotional dysregulation
Compulsive news checking
Triggered distress when seeing Trump’s image or hearing his name
“TDS” is not an officially recognized medical illness; it is a political slang term used to describe extreme emotional or irrational reactions to Donald Trump, though some commentators and clinicians claim it resembles anxiety or obsessive‑compulsive patterns.
What TDS Means
Not a real medical diagnosis: The term does not appear in the DSM‑5 and has no formal clinical definition.
Psychology Today
Compulsive news checking
Triggered distress when seeing Trump’s image or hearing his name
These descriptions resemble anxiety or obsessive‑compulsive patterns, but they are interpretations, not official diagnoses.

I would support this. Every possible topic is turned into politics by the minions, and no humor.
BaronVonZemo64648 postsIt would allow the politicos to immerse themselves while at the same time separating the ill from the non ill (because there are some obsessed people suffering from derangement).
My prediction is that the Ops will say that they tried this but it failed.
I would answer, "Those were different times".
I've thought about leaving the board more recently and have found other sites....not because of my side losing the midterms either. I began thinking about this last Spring/Summer.
The mod has tipped the scales on posting here such that it is no longer really the "Open" board that drew me away from NDNation.
Also, the obsessive and hateful nature of the political posters here has increased massively.
Kyle will probably have some understandable concern about how a board populated by Tyrone, Jim, and Q will do. I would too. But he has a bigger concern imho if he doesn't act. I've discussed this with multiple long time, quality posters here. I know that I am not alone.

I know it was tried in the past. Things are much different (worse) now than before.
It doesn’t help when there seems to be heavy handed, one sided moderation. It probably would be good to have a political board. If not, Hensou is correct. The ignore function is a great board cleanser.

I would.
The only other choice is to put all the Propagandists on Ignore, which creates a curated forum within the Open Forum.
Let them talk amongst themselves.

Obviously, Hensou has no idea what a Forum is...if anyone doesn't agree with him, they don't belong.
He's much too thin skinned, and cowardly, to defend himself in a simple on line debate...why is he even here?
