You must have bad luck. I have been posting to Usenet for several years and
haven't seen a single newsgroup that doesn't have a fair amount of OT posts.
Likewise, I haven't seen any newsgroup that was destroyed by such posts.
Most people are smart enough to avoid posts that don't appeal to them. With
judicious use of filters and killfiles you don't even have to see the posts.
I don't know why people would suddenly lose interest in gardening because
someone posted a politically slanted article about a store with a garden
center. That seems as puzzling as all the people who claim that everyone
would lose interest in marriage if it were make available to same-sex
couples.

Is THAT what they're claiming? I've been trying to figure out what they're
talking about when they say "same sex marriage would "destroy" traditional
marriage", since the people who say that don't seem capable of explaining what
that is supposed to mean. :/
