The only thing anyone posts about here is Trump - day in and day out.
Of the 20 threads on the front page of Civics:
- eight are explicitly about Trump and/or his impeachment[1]
- seven are not directly about Trump, but he's mentioned in the opening post anyway[2]
- two more aren't about Trump but he still gets frequent mentions[3], despite the supposed thread topic (Brexit / taxing churches)
Only three of the twenty threads do not quickly descend into discussions of Trump[4], and one of those is about how to deal with the whistleblower who exposed him. Even the thread about a massacre in Mexico begins with asking what Trump will do about it.
When Trump is the basis or referent for 80% of the threads here and rapidly becomes the topic of half the others, there is really no grounds for complaining about TDS. You might as well change the Civics tagline to "Donald duke" and move the thread on China to World History because that's a better fit.
