First let me apologize that I posted in a way that you took that feeling from it. It was mean to be ironic humor to foster communication not smug and stifle it.
'too political' is the policy label HN uses. That I am referencing the term used seems like good faith and it would be odd and reduce comprehension for me to invent a new descriptor.
My intention with linking to a boring 1940s 'nazi's bad' film that has been non-political consensus for 80 years as a starting point that no one could possibly think is political was to be ironic not sneering. I thought I was asking 'between the clearly not political consensus that nazis are bad... and the richest man on earth flaunting nazi symbolism multiple time at the current President's inauguration... where does the 'too political' HN flag kick in?'. I'll try to avoid humor when making statements that people can feel judged by.
I think the I/P conflict being a special case immune from HN flagging is what threw extra confusion in the mix for me. The multiple I/P posts left up which have way less relevance to tech and are way more political than yesterday's events (because for 80 years before yesterday 'sieg heil bad at Presidential inaugurations' wasn't considered political and I still don't see it as political just horrific, to be honest.) gave me the impression ongoing exceptions were routinely made but now I understand those were special I/P conflict exceptions that this didn't rise to.
