A list of dead horses litigated ad infinitum / ad nauseam:
Iraq War (going way back to when I joined this board)
Reagan's legacy
Bush 43's legacy
Obama / Obama's legacy
Wall St / Auto industry meltdown and who's at fault
Keynes vs Friedman (AKA public infrastructure spending vs free market/neoliberalism)
Health care: From the ACA to M4A to Single Payer to Universal Payer*
Taxation and it's relationship to necessary services
Trump's relationship to the extent of his alleged crimes and coverup*
Israel and Palestine
There's likely more. The two I marked with an asterisk are ongoing issues and are still relevant to discuss. An argument can be made over the Taxation one too because the tax code just changed and people just filed under the new code, and we're in a new election cycle which could change the code once again - but the whole theft thing is ad nauseam for sure.
While the goal isn't intended to re-litigate all of the topics into a super thread, it's purpose is to get a running list of topics we in general will roll our eyes when a n00b waltzes in here thinking they're starting an original, unique discussion because this is now a recurring thing nearly monthly it seems.
