I have my own solution regarding political discussions in a forum setting---I just don't read the thread. People are reasonably clear with respect to the topic title, and I know I will most likely get annoyed by some post or other so I just don't open it. I prefer in-person discussions because then you can ask for clarification and the chance of being misinterpreted is less likely.
That said, if people here want to talk about a political topic, it's up to them. I've seen nastier comments on non-political threads.
