When I made that comparison, I did not mean to bring politics into the conversation, but I assume it is a natural direction people can take it too.
I will just say this: the issues with the US are beyond *partisan* politics. In my opinion, it is a social problem much deeper than what is shown on TVs and discussed in election campaigns. Changing the party in power will not change the situation. Until the US acknowledged these matters, it will continue on the same path it has been.
Read those threads again, I am not petitioning for 'forbidding politics' but for applying the same rules to all discussions related to politics - no more 'rules for thee but not for (D)'. It has become impossible to keep politics out of the discourse since everything has been made political.
