The entire point of "politics is the mind-killer" is that no, even here is not immune to tribalistic idea-warfare politics. The politics just get more complicated. And the stopgap solution until we figure out a way around that tendency, which doesn't appear reliably avoidable, is to sandbox the topic and keep it limited. You should have a high prior that a belief that you can be "strong" is Dunning-Kruger talking.
Okay, but feeling no passion, literally, no blood pressure rising isn't a strong evidence there with few false positives? Does it have many false positives?
Sandboxing is okay, better than total taboo, this is why I recommended a quarantine. Or a biweekly thread.
