Based on feedback from this post, we're going to trial pushing for more politically controversial posts to go in !politics instead of !newzealand.

We're interested in seeing where users think the line is. Which of these recent posts do you think belong in !politics?

  1. Frustration mounting as high school teacher strikes roll on - 1News
  2. All Whites game abandoned after alleged racial abuse - RNZ
  3. ‘Random’ group of Kiwis caught protesters who lit Parliament fires - 1News
  4. Teacher struck off after refusing to use student’s pronouns - 1News
  5. New additional ETS scheme floated in review of carbon market - RNZ
  6. Migrant workers being exploited, Queenstown Citizens Advice Bureau says - RNZ
  7. Operation Pakari: More arrests of people linked to Mongrel Mob, 85 charges laid - RNZ
  8. Auckland surgeons must now consider ethnicity in prioritising patients for operations - NZ Herald
  9. This RNZ story is probably more complicated than first thought - Stuff
  10. Teacher struck off after refusing to use student’s pronouns - 1News

We're not able to move posts to another community at the moment, but we're thinking of locking posts that should be in !politics and asking the OP to cross-post them there. Do you think this is the best approach?

My thoughts, for what it's worth

I think the lock and x-post is probably the best solution at the moment, it does mean that I don't have to subscribe to [email protected] but will see the posts if I want to read more
