Yesterday I read that HN is filled with business posts, today that it's filled with political posts. I can't see any of either on the front page right now. Dang has some classic comments filled with links to countless people insisting in the strongest terms that HN is intolerably and totally far-left, far-right, and everything in between. People see it as whatever they are not. If you don't like political stories, then hiding, flagging them is not enough, or just not reading them? I'm sure whatever the topic you could find people totally sick of that topic and wish it was banned on here. You find the discussion boring?! Don't read it! Why isn't that enough for you? I don't find that talk of "the wrong opinion" helpful. You find downvotes on certain comments very unnecessary?! Your proposal to ban politics seems like a vastly larger downvote/flag, on a whole subject area.
