No kidding, but I doubt it will stop.  My kill file was
emptied out when Google stopped spamming USENET.  I fear
it will start growing quite a bit now.

I can only guess is these posts are showing up here and in
other Linux groups because the toxic posts in the political
groups caused reasonable people to flee.  So they are
stuck in an echo chamber.  Being narcissistic, they want
to be heard, so they are polluting non-political sites.

Maybe someone with enough time on their hands can create
a moderated comp.os.linux.misc :)
