If someone is just discussing politics as it pertains to bitcoin/crypto and just trying to present unbiased information, that's fine. That's what we should all strive to do. However, 99% of political discourse isn't about information, its about slandering or mocking the opposing party.
From my perspective, I think the slandering is much more of an American thing than a European thing. Here, character attacks on politicians are rare, although I think it's now happening more often than it used to. Take our previous prime minister and future NATO leader for example: nobody knows anything about his private life. If you Google him, you'll read "
as far as anyone knows, has never been in a relationship". But when it's about the USA, every tiny little personal detail up to cocaine in the Whitehouse reaches the Dutch news.
Drama seems to get more votes than real political ideas.
I don’t think personal attacks require moderation. Can you please post the related forum rule?
The limit is at physical threats:
