Kind of a big deal fits with the site, but Public Interest is probably better to protect the site and keep it clear that these are public figures

The following threads do not fit the traditional definition of a lolcow or anything adjacent but are very active.
Possibly also these.

@CrunkLord420 believes a board specifically for "not really an internet retard" high-profile individuals may benefit the site. His shortlist for candidates are based off his interests in technology and business and are:
  • Alex Karp
  • Sam Altman
  • David Sacks
  • Larry Ellison

Discuss.

I assume what you mean by "Internet person" is someone who's claim to fame does not come from the Internet? Would Alex Jones and Greta Thunberg count? Why the fuck does Adam Sandler have a thread? I guess he would work..?
 
I didn't realize Kanye got so much traffic since I only follow him when he is off his meds doing heil Hitler type shit.

"Public Interest" is a classy title. I think it's a good idea overall.

Would Laura loomer fall under the new board or be considered a talking head? Cause she does a lot of lolsuits and connections in the political world and used to stream to people in the sektur. Or would she just be considered a full blown lowocow?

IDK how this will be a good thing, your administrative solution to dealing with anything that was high profile and controversial was segregation and containment threads(ukraine war/trumpy/anything recent). Honestly I can see this as possibly a good thing if you butchered the segregation and containment threads and actually enforced rules on privileged spergy users so they would at least stay on topic or compose their rhetoric in a palatable format or just get the boot and a hint instead of just forming an echo chamber thread constantly talking about their politically opposite echo chamber thread, but realistically all this is just going to be is the battleground of the two echo chamber threads of any high profile figure.
 
I guess I haven't clicked through the forum subsections for a while because I could have sworn there was a famous lolcows section that mostly covered these kind of people. Or maybe I'm misremembering and it was just a tag or something. Either way, a section for those kind of people is probably good.
