You can talk about it on many, many sites across the web. You will soon find that talking politics is useless. You're not going to convince anyone that they are wrong, just as their arguments will not alter your view. It is a waste of electrons.
Still, many sites welcome it as it generates traffic for their ad revenue. Keep users engaged in heated 'debates', to eek out a few cents more.
Please, keep politics out of HN. Let's keep this site reasonably sane, whatever that means.
- FrustratedMonky 1y agoI agree, was hoping HN would be where more 'civil discourse' could happen with those that are embedded in this particular area. Like if you were a nuclear scientist, and wanted to talk to other nuclear scientist, while developing the bomb. And wanted to go beyond discussing the latest formula/experiment, and wanted to talk about the politics of what you're building. While building it. Maybe huggingface?
