> That only works because HN is, mostly, politics-free. I have to disagree with that one. This discussion -- content moderation-- is one of the most political topics possible. More things are political than most people realize. However, I do think that the quality of the political discourse here is much better than other places; it is often just based on ideas, and even if they're plainly wrong, they're not usually presented in an inflammatory way. That is what sets things apart, rather than the lack of politics.
