There is no rule, unwritten or otherwise, that suggests posts about a politician should only go in the that politician’s named forum. Not even close.

The “groups” are safe-havens where pro and con discussions are not allowed. Only pro discussions.

I never cared much for safe haven groups. I almost never post in them.

Du as plenty of tools at your disposal to tailor your OWN experience. You are going to get much better results using those tools instead of pleading for enforcement of nonexistent rules.
