Careful. You are projecting here. This is the very reason that these topics get penalties. When it comes to politics, people assume that everyone must fall on a side and have strong feelings about a given topic.
A relatively small portion of the community ends up flooding everyone with stories related to these topics and it turns a huge chunk of people off that just don't care to read about it. They can't say they don't care because that's seen as being ignorant to people that are passionate so it just alienates them.

- hueving 12y agoYou missed the whole point. It doesn't matter whether or not the person actually is ignorant when it comes to the topic. If someone doesn't want to waste the limited time in their life arguing about this stuff, they don't have to. When every other article is related to it, it's pretty exclusionary.
- throwawayaway 12y ago> A relatively small portion of the community ends up flooding everyone > a huge chunk of people off that just don't care to read about it talk about projecting. i'm sure it was super democratic and indeed the voice of the people that got an NSA/snowden filter put in place and how robin hood of you to spring to its defence.
