Man, this strikes me as a really lopsided exercise. And to what end? The visceral reactions about politics are a part of US society. Hiding what's going on only makes things worse. As hackers, we should be finding a shared language to work these problems out.

Yes we should, but the creative energy you're alluding to is the first thing to leave when the vitriol starts flowing.
What should we do? I don't know, but I don't think a week off is going to hurt anybody.
