I posted it here because this is where community administrative issues are discussed; we've made exceptions for such discussions in the past, but they really belong on this forum.

To be clear, current events can still be discussed in the Current Events forum that have nothing to do with mental health, as long as you continue to post a clear reason for posting the link or article, and kick off the thoughtful discussion about the topic. This new policy is not related to any specific thread or post and has been in the making for the past few weeks as we spent some time reflecting on that forum's purpose within our community.

This new policy decision only affects political discussions in Current Events.
