    What's wrong with that thread (note: I didn't read beyond the OP)?

      Ah, US politics. I suppose voting to remove would be the appropriate action.

        The guy was behaving like a troll and you, and others, threw him a bone. Oops, wrong thread.

            I don't see how that contradicts voting to remove the message.

              I thought the soiapbox was for just such topics. The flame wars is what I thought he didn't want. In any case, how is that thread inappropriate? I only read the first couple of messages in it, but everybody seemed well-behaved.

                  So ignore the policy and just wait and see if it upsets enough people or you happen to be walking down aisle 4?

                      fat_boy went to great pains to find a thread that used climate change as an example without actually being about climate change. Sure, it's part of his personal vendetta but I'm meant to be on a holiday.
