The problem with discussing politics is that it gives you the kicks. Its very easy to get into a feedback loop and take things quite far off civility. I am also guilty of it, many times. IMHO there needs to be a mechanism for breaking the loop and then we can have civil online political discussions. Unfortunately most places just ban it or ban those who got into the loop, either way its ugly. IRL when discussing poli…
No thank you. I am absolutely uninterested in civil discussions with people who literally want to kill me and deport my good friends to guantanamo bay cuba. When you accept nazism you throw the concept of civil discourse out the window.

#704I wish this hadn't happened. I wonder what level of compartmentalisation inside DHS means they didn't see this as having sufficient downsides? I ask this, because I don't think anyone in the subject matter specialist space would have made a strong case "kill it, we don't need this" and I am sure if asked would have made a strong case "CRISSAKE WE NEED THIS DONT TOUCH IT" -But I could believe senior finance would do t…

I can't believe what a bunch of bollocks this administration is. I couldn't believe it the first time, and this time I thought "Well at least I'm ready, it will be a lot like last time" and it's so much worse
A lot was lost in the midterms and Supreme Court appointments. Hopefully these 4 years energize people to vote. I know protesting and direct action and so on are also important, but the gradient is not negative for voting for every office you can vote for in every election.

Why not just say it plainly instead of using supposedly non-partisan language? This neutral phrasing seems to be an appeal to a "silent majority" that agrees with you and disagrees with Republican leadership. What if that silent majority doesn't exist?

Case in point: you have decided that those who disagree with you want to kill you, deport your friend, and are otherwise nazis. While a minority do, that isn't the majority.

#708FWIW, I've never understood why this sort of thing wasn't just directly handled by the NSA --- aren't they the group which should be tasked with cybersecurity? I always suspected that "Department of Homeland Security" would lead to Banana-republic-like shenanigans --- could we defund them?

#710To the "I wish HN would stay out of politics" crew. You can stay out of politics, but politics will always come and find you.
The problem is not political topics, it is how people discuss them.
But I think people are waking up, because things they took as non-political god given right is being made political and taken away.
