Do you want more discussions of politics here?  Because this is
how you get more discussions of politics here.

Somebody cited Ben Shapiro, and in response you discussed Ben Shapiro
at considerable length -- with the intent, I guess, of saying that
discussing Ben Shapiro here is in appropriate.

Please, say that it's off-topic *without* engaging in further
off-topic discussion, or just ignore it.  If you insist on replying
to off-topic posts that offend you, you encourage more of them.
