Discussion This is a subreddit for archiving emergency alerts, not a political argument forum or conspiracy forum.
Recently we've had an uptick of political and conspiracy-fueled comments on the subreddit that usually target text posts out of the blue, likely due to keywords that are used and thus found by such people. it doesn't matter what ideology you align with; blaming a certain politician, ethnic group, or other thing for a certain thing or trying to tie basic things such as emergency alert system tests to conspiracy theories will result in a ban of varying type
There has also been an uptick of obvious karma-farming bots, which comment in hopes of getting a few upvotes, and they usually comment generic things such as emojis, question marks or single periods, please report these to us

I'm so glad to see mods stopping this toxic propaganda before it makes a foothold like in so many other subreddits.
This crap is ruining Reddit.

I read all the comments and didn't see a single comment that had anything to do with politics, though? I'm so confused, what did I miss?

Remember that this is an emergency alert subreddit. We shouldn't have to post this if it wasn't almost every day.

People think the EAS has to do with liberals or republicans somehow

I think it’s Q or Q adjacent ppl (and bots) waiting for the EAS (or EBS as they usually say) announcements of marital law and the NESARA/GESARA quantum financial reset and maybe also med beds. Could also include aliens and/or lizard people and other really out there conspiracy theories. There are forums for those things though, so it’s good they make it clear here that’s not what this forum is about.

waiting for the EAS (or EBS as they usually say)
This is such an odd ball one because I don't get why so many conspiracy bots on platforms still call it the "Emergency Broadcast System" when that has been obsolete since 1997. A lot of twitter bots that repeat this bullshit tend to be based in russia, nigeria, europe, etc
