I understand why this got flagged, but I'm sad that it did. There are a million places to discuss politics on the internet, but none of them quite have the perspective that HN does. As a relatively long-term reader (I don't think I commented at all for the first decade or so), I find that these days my horizons are expanded more by the non-technical threads on the site. In particular I was looking forward to learning how the HN crowd in the USA and Europe view our politics at the moment. I'm not sure where else I would go to learn that; I suppose could look on Reddit or a clone, but any unique views there tend to be drowned out by memetics.
