Combined, most people want fewer such threads, a minority want it to stay as it is. That's what I'm getting at. There is a clear preference for fewer political discussions.

Cba. I see plenty of rw posting here.
I'm not sure I understand the point you're trying to make with this post.
I always feels swamped when I post. It's not a very fun experience. If I so much as say I'm against SSM or whatever, I can count on it being at least a 5-1 discussion.
Then we're done with this tangent.
Why should liberal atheists not be welcome to debate religious topics? I've seen many posts by atheists about religious matters and often atheists know the tenants of some religion better than those who follow that religion. And why stereotype liberal atheists as only interested in politics? You have, in fact, brought politics into a thread about religion and RF which proves the point of those who have asserted that politics and religion are utterly intertwined these days.
Except that there's no reason to combine those two.
The fact that you're getting different results for the first option and the last option shows that.
A minority just said that they don't want fewer Biden /Trump threads. Stretching that to say that only a minority of people in favor of fewer political throws in general is a misinterpretation of the results.
Not sure where you're seeing that.
FWIW, I get the sense that you've coaxed the thread from being one of "Goodbye Perhaps" to a hopeful "Good Riddance At Last," which is, of course, fine.
Still, I seriously doubt that you or the owners would appreciate the result.

I mean the complaint seems to be that there should be less "off-topic" stuff (apparently all non-religious topics are this) so people don't leave. I'm suggesting a lot more might be leaving if all that "off-topic" stuff was sidelined.
What? The OP is not saying what you think he is in that case? I agree with the OP. He doesn't want to stay because of the Trump and Biden **** and the off-topic stuff..
Huh? Who even implied this?
Did you read the OP?
Could you provide an example thread that illustrates this?
Search Engine Optimization. Having a domain name that captures an entire category without any descriptors pretty much guarantees you're going to be at the top of the list on Google's first page when somebody googles the topic.
Nobody.
But religious folks generally aren't liberal atheists...
Wonder if this is news.
I read @Rival 's post to imply that.
That's not my complaint. I'm talking specifically about the toxicity that the political forums bring to the table. I've spent an excessive amount of time moderating mean-spirited posts in forums I rarely even participate in.
And let's not forget about the poll's insidious "etc" category, particularly given that it would include threads such as "Goodbye Perhaps" and the poll it spawned.
