Comment on [Meta] Could we consider avoiding political topics in this community?

As one of the few folks who have asked such questions, I obviously am against. I don’t think the dedicated pol communities are particularly good for honest questions about platforms/political figures; everything in those spaces feels like it’s being intentionally spun (even in discussions) in a way that this community does not. (Also, several of the communities you suggest as pol discussion places are… just not? Extremely few questions, most the posts are headlines, discussions don’t seem to happen much. Some feel closer to a curated feed of cringe.)

I do agree it could become an issue, and that would justify some division, perhaps tags? But I don’t think it is currently very unpleasant, and it will almost certainly get better in 2 months (at least short term).
