Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, or celebrities, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic. Politics are politics no matter whether you happen to agree with them or not. If politics are off-topic then so are all those Guardian articles and flagging them is the correct approach. Mind you, I have my disagreements with this policy since I know nearly everything has been made political. Be that as it may the policy should be applied without bias for this forum to not devolve into yet another Reddit clone.
