Ban Political Ads
Why?:
Political ads should stay out of the canvas for gods sake, common sense.
Its not just my view but the 5 dudes from the political ad "Volt" aka "Volt Europe" will say "iTs ArT", "LoOk At ThE GaMe LoGoS" - yeah those are FAN ARTS. A political party CANT have FANS, they can have just voters, who want to gain power somewhere in the world, and they use a "neutral" space to advertise their political party. I hope for those guys they get some fat rewards for their ad on the canvas.
Edit: Thanks for the confirmation @ downvoters that this is for good.
And who should decide if it's a political ad or not? You could count anything as political ad. Of course there are more obvious examples, like the logo of a political party. But there's also symbols of political groups, like LGBTQ flags, free software mascots, free software license logos, the fuckcars banner, and whatnot. Your suggestion is just not feasible.
Its a political ad if there is something political in it. Like for german political partys like cdu logo, fdp logo, afd logo....
