You're talking about how society should be run and how the state should respond to issues within its purview. That's inherently political.

I would say that being careful with one's language to avoid offense is reasonable, if the hypothetical other party's propensity for taking offense is reasonable. Incense at the specter of a political discussion is not reasonable.

Discussions on HN are more interesting when the partisan temperature is turned down.

A political discussion need not be divisive. Again, it's not good that so many have been convinced that it must be.
