Perhaps someone should start such a site? I fear if you let that kind of discussion on HN without any curation, it will just become like every other site that allows full scale political discussion. Pretty much a fire hose.
You might be right in that there isn't a good place to discuss it, but I don't think HN is the the solution for it.
- mistermann 10y agoPolitical discussion in non-political threads could be very damaging to HN overall, I'd be fully supportive of a very short leash outside of threads that aren't explicitly political, but we should be able to have political threads, I can't see how that is harmful at all. If HN can't have these discussions then god help us all.
