Let's not act like you were somehow forced to read the comments to a thread titled "DOGE's only public ledger is riddled with mistakes" and whine that it really needs a politics tag so you don't accidentally stumble across it.
What were you expecting, after wading half way through the comments?
I was expecting for these political posts to be treated the same as other political posts, i.e. shut down due to them being off-topic for this site. Alternatively I'd expect the 'no politics' rule (yes, rule) to be either restated as 'Bay Area politics welcome, other politics off-topic' (/s) or 'politics welcome, tag title [politics]' (like PDF's are tagged) or 'politics welcome, thread will be tagged' or something along those lines. What's good for the goose is good for the gander after all.
