I have the paid version of Malwarebytes and I am getting a fraud warning/malware alert when I open threads on Debate Politics. Has anyone else seen this alert?

I have paid Malwarebytes, and I'm not getting any warnings.

It seems to be going nuts today because it tried to block me from using Duck-Duck-Go as a search engine.

Sounds more like you already had a virus that detects Malwarebytes and messes with you.

MalwareBytes sometimes has false positives.

I used to love it, but their spamming got out of control. I rely on Windows Defender now.
 
So its not just me?

I just finished running a deep scan of over 250K files while I was eclipse watching, and it was clean.

Now it seems to be back to normal. That's weird.
My wife didn't find anything either. But I think she did update our Malwarebytes.
