Purely political topics such as this should be automatically banned by policy on HN.

The guidelines state:

> Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, or celebrities, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.

No, some comments are good. But make sure to flag the offending ones.

More than 90% of the comments are partisan attacks on Trump. I'm happy for her win, but the topic doesn't stimulate a high quality discussion.

How is it a political topic here? Perhaps in Venezuela it is, but here?

even if it did - the submission is purely about politics and should be discussed at r/worldnews for example.

I'm not seeing that. I am seeing an overwhelming number of comments about Venezuela and the legitimacy of the Nobel Peace Prize over the years.

What a boring fucking site that would be. Just man up and admit you don't like these specific politics.
