How about trying to encourage better political discussions rather than banning the whole topic?

We are in a very tense political landscape. Obviously people on HN need to talk it out. At least let's encourage healthy and proper conversations.

Maybe even have a specific "political discussion guidelines". The using downvotes to remove noise/unhealthy conversations we can have some proper arguments.

What is "better", or "healthy" or "proper", and for how long these definition will hold?

Because yesterday I could say some words that would be considered improper, unhealthy, and worse today.

Tomorrow, will be different words.

And, we have not even discussed better, healthy, and proper opinions.
