So, has there been an influx of new participants into LW who only want to argue politics? I haven't noticed any.

There seems to be a member who mainly came to LW to argue "pragmatarianism" who's karma is as the time of this writing negative.

I think this member is mostly in the business of marketing his blog and isn't interested in LW otherwise.
