Both the email and newsreader parts of Thunderbird have an option called Ignore Thread. Do your readers have such?
I consume my email from a variety of disparate devices, including a Debian laptop, a Windows desktop, a Chromebook, an Android phone, and various university-managed computer labs. As such, and as I rely heavily on Gmail's filtering and labeling system to manage my email, I rely solely on Google's standard web interface and Android app for Gmail for the sake of a consistent experience across devices. I don't know if Google offers such an option. It takes me about three seconds to click a thread, see the arguing, and click Archive, but I'm getting tired of doing that repeatedly.

To mute an email thread, simply: - Within Gmail: - Open the email conversation you want to mute - Click more and in the drop down menu select mute [...]
When a conversation is muted, any new message will bypass your inbox so that the conversation stays archived. Muted conversations will reappear in your inbox if a new message in the conversation is addressed to you and no one else, or if you're added to the "To" or "Cc" line in a new message.
Does that fix your problem? Martin
