Why not ban it forever? Unless it's directly connected to tech it just makes this site more of the same and means one less place to escape toxic politics.

HN is a place for "intellectual curiosity", instead of just tech. A lot of it is tech, but not all.

The whole last 2 weeks was all about tech. Twitter ban, parler shut down, Facebook inciting and radicalizing people. Tech is so immerse in our life and society that I don’t know how you can turn off politics while keeping tech on.

Because it's frequently connected to technology?

It's hard to discuss net neutrality, or content moderation, or even applications of certain technologies (stems cells, for instance) without mentioning politics.

And that's not even touching science topics like evolution or climate change.
