I understand why it's necessary to lock threads but I don't understand why they are locked but not cleaned up from the reason why it is locked before or hidden until it is done.
Now we have a situation where alternative facts about religion are posted here and nobody can react to them. It looks like we want these point of view here.
It's fine to say that we don't want this topic in this forum but if so, it should be removed before a thread is locked (or hidden until this is done).
