Legitimately looking for some input here:

Why is a 'megathread' necessary for George Santos when the topic itself gets relatively few posts? For example, there has only been 1 other post about George Santos in the last 3 days that is still up. That post has only managed to gain around +10 upvotes and 2 comments in the 15 hours it has been up. Outside of that post and this post, the last George Santos-related post which is still up on the subreddit is from last Friday.

Even in /r/LongIsland's Week 4 George Santos 'megathread', there have only been ~50 comments, while the post itself has been up for 11 days (and pinned to the top of the 130,000 member subreddit for 7, I assume), which, when factoring in the number of recent George Santos posts from this subreddit, shows that there isn't really enough for a megathread, in my opinion.

Also, when the topic of crime posts was a big issue in this subreddit, particularly near the election, why were you a large and vocal advocate against creating one? To me, your argument back then was that "there simply isn't [wasn't] enough crime posts to warrant a crime megathread'. Personally, I was also against the crime megathread, but I don't understand your position on why you believe a George Santos is necessary, even though there have been even fewer posts related to him than there were related to crime back when you argued that there "weren't enough posts to warrant a crime megathread".

Again, I'm not trying to start anything here. Rather, I'm trying to understand your position (and anyone else who feels who has a similar position - feel free to jump in here too) on the megathread issue, which I know is rather controversial here considering the survey post alone which you commented in got 100+ comments. Maybe you and others who feel a similar way can help me in realizing what I might be missing here in your position on the topic.
