Fandom bans politics on GameFAQs (outside of Current Events)

Board 8

In CE in particular, "News event happened" conveys a very different message to start a conversation than "Political Party was Right Because News Event" happened.

that's just framing.
if you ban the latter the former will have it be implied so uh... doesn't matter.

I don't think it's possible (or reasonable) to try to sit here and think of an all-encompossing definition.

if you can't find a possible or reasonable definition then maybe you shouldn't be doing it in the first place because nobody knows what the fuck you mean.

even the idea of a "basic human right" isn't clear to everyone. some places consider water to be it, others don't. the US considers free speech the cornerstone of basic human rights, most of the world doesn't. as a result, both are political. there is no way to do this without policing speech. i don't get what's complicated.
