Just this really. Why are Trump threads being allowed in AIBU? Needs a board for people who are obsessed with this "topic" or should be in politics/news?

Close your eyes to issues and hide them if it doesn't affect you.

If you want to discuss parking issues rather than the rise and influence of the far right in the West, that's your choice.

I know which one is more important.

Hi TeaCake5

Thanks so much for flagging.

We're always open to new ideas and so, as always, if there is a demand then we'll be sure to look into it.

Just hide them then.

There is one Trump thread.

And ditto to what pp said. I think all those "aibu to ask how often do you wash your towels /sheets/pj's" should go in housekeeping but I just ignore them.

And most threads on AIBU could be posted elsewhere on the site - weddings, relationships, cars, style and beauty, education, etc. It's quite a miscellaneous topic.

AIBU is not exactly over run with Trump threads though - there is only one within the first few pages of the topic, and it's very clear from the title what it's about so easy enough to avoid. Just don't click on it if you're that bored!
