If only things were so easy. Alas, things are not that simple, at all. Just try to discuss a project which automates the creation of a whitelist for master/slave connections which you'll be using when you attend the black hat conference and you'll find out you just violated 4 new rulings-on-speech without having the slightest clue as to why - unless you've been following those maligned discussions on politics and ideology that is.
In short, when everything has been politicised it is impossible to discuss anything without involving politics.
