I'm largely in line with where a lot of the comments under these political posts are coming from, but there's no discussion in them. It's rhetoric, outrage, and oversimplifying things.

The comments on HN are worth reading precisely because of the discussions, so I'm not sure what the point of political posts are if that fails.

In general I agree, but I think this is one of those cases where theres no oversimplifying, it really is just what you see on its face.

A UK bureaucracy is threatening fundamental and constitutional rights of an American. Its so outrageous, I really dont think there's any nuanced discussion to be had.
