That's basically right.

Yes, it's a tricky line to draw because there is inevitably some overlap between politics/ideology and the stories that are on topic here. I've written about this quite a bit: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu.... Some good threads to start with might be https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21607844 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22902490. Also https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17014869, which shows how far back political discussion goes on HN, as well as the argument about politics on HN.

If you take a look at those explanations and still have a question that isn't answered there, I'd like to know what it is.
