The /politics team has noticed an increase in spam posts in our channel recently. We want to ensure that our space remains a place for rational debates and discussions, but we also understand the concern with potentially limiting free speech, prioritizing voices that we align with, or making the channel biased.

We value your input and would like to know your thoughts on whether we should appoint moderators to help manage this channel.

Can you share a few examples of what you & the team considered spam? That would be helpful to understand where the moderation line stands, and make a call on this.

Right now, mostly just any posts that use the phrases "Check your $DEGEN points", "claim tokens", and "airdrop".

I think in the future, we might look into banning users who continue to make personal attacks against other users. But that would be a larger and later conversation.

Thanks!
Obvious bot generated messages like that should definitely be banned imo :)

For the personal attacks against other users, I would take a case by case approach.

When I first posted the poll, I thought @automod required us to curate the main channel. Thankfully, that was incorrect.
