What would be something &quot;divisive&quot;, in your opinion?  I think some very divisive topics are discussed fairly regularly here, among them:<p>1. Gender politics<p>2. NSA&#x2F;surveillance<p>3. Vim&#x2F;Emacs<p>And I could name at least 2-3 regular commenters on HN who fall pretty cleanly into each of the opposing sides of these issues (ok, maybe not Emacs, but all the others).<p>Just because we&#x27;re not degenerating into flame wars doesn&#x27;t mean we don&#x27;t discuss divisive topics.
