Deciding what are unacceptable posts is literally the job of a moderator.
According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_forum#Moderators,
moderators "are often referred to as janitors (or, more pejoratively,
"jannies"[note 2]) given their job, which is tantamount to cleaning up the
imageboards' infamous shitposting.[16]" Among other things, a "shitpost" serves
to derail a discussion.

https://groups.io/g/marxmail/message/33894 and my response,
https://groups.io/g/marxmail/message/33897 are both about Syria. AW changes
the topic in his response to Ukraine. That is an example of a "shitpost," in
this moderator's judgement.
