As far as I understand the HN mod team tries to reduce politically discussions as much as possible. For my taste they are doing a great job at this because it protects the community from tearing apart. There are so many places that had once interesting discussions and now have morphed into political shouting matches - for me Twitter is a main example of that. I personally like that culture on HN and I am trying to contribute by flagging any politically charged topics no matter if they are leaning left or right.
