Usenet newsgroups use to have moderated lists to stop the offtopic and flame wars. When perl moved to the web, that was the last time I used newsgroups as a daily discussion. (mostly...) I can't even enjoy tech without the invasion of politics, use to like a bunch of sites that I found out are gawker writer staffed like jalopnik. Every 10 or so car articles is an anti-trump article. They can't even leave politics out, social media is 100x worse. I remember the days, I could read linux news and not once would politics be mentioned, that is no more.
