I'd really like everyone to remember this is a recovery site - with a lot of members from all walks of life.
I've no desire to censor and up to now I've not removed any posts regardless of point of view - but I think purely political posts, especially lately, are detracting from the sense of unity and commonality that we all should share.
For these group threads, from now, I'd ask everyone to mention election results/politics strictly and only in the context of recovery and recovery support.
For example, if you're scared or disappointed and that's making you feel like drinking, that's an understandable post that should be acceptable to everyone - but attacks on parties, voters or candidates are against our rules.
Plenty of other places to talk politics
