how is discussing politics more akin to disconnected intellectual exercise than discussing linux kernels and source code licenses?
if anything, i'd say it's the other way around: if one feels more political action is needed (as wannabe seemed to imply), the best path to that action is for people in all fields to educate themselves about politics, right?
by using slashdot as a forum for political debate, we are educating ourselves and others, NOT carrying on meaningless intellectual discussion
