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.
