I'm relatively new here and don't read reddit. What about the article doesn't fit here?

  Like a political or religious discussion, it's a bit polarizing - it seems to raise the kind of questions where reasonable people would agree to disagree, and we're afraid of not being so reasonable ;)

    There's pulp political pieces and then there's intellectual insight about politics. This piece strikes me as having intellectual insight.

      For that matter, I think "A Letter to my students" is definitely a pulp political piece. And yet it is on the front page with 150+ points. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1631682 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1631682

        Articles like that are why I would be happier to simply see politics banned from this site.

          There's no such thing a nonpolitical issue.

          If your concept of "politics" extends to corporate soap operas and "which tech industry company do we like right now", I'm with you.
