A hard ban on politics and current events, instead of the wiggly one we have in the site guidelines now.

The problem with that is that it's hard to say exactly what counts as politics. E.g. is an article about economic inequality like this one

It's interesting, but is it useful for a busy founder?

Or to make that more concrete, would you forward that link to multiple portfolio CEOs and suggest they take time out of their day to read it and discuss it?

Not sure what 'founders' and 'CEOs' have to do with hacker news.

This tiff seems to highlight what's perhaps the problem: is there really agreement & understanding on what HN is supposed to be about?
