This is a site about hacking video game consoles, not politics
I have never got that line of logic or understood why one should preclude the other. Moreover such discussions have been here... I don't know if I can say the start as I have not plumbed the forums that much but for more than a decade and things are doing just fine. If you don't want to engage then surely it is like the football (soccer if you prefer) threads -- I can't stand the game, not playing it, not watching it, not playing computer games of it, not watching computer games of it, not discussing any aspect of the previous... and never have, indeed if there is such a thing as activity induced narcolepsy then I probably have it for football) and have no clue how people do it. To that end I just don't and skip past such things.
But even without that is the stance on hacking game consoles, and all that comes with it, not a political act after a fashion? In doing so you are typically going up against the vest interests of a lot of political actors, and policies that have stood and been enacted from various governments (at this point there is a decent chance the DMCA is older than many of the newer members or at least from a point they are likely to remember, while it has been somewhat defanged it is still present and enjoys a broad measure of cross party support).
Back on topic, so to speak, then a firm -1 from me. I can't say I find ignoring things the best plan in life but the tools are there if you must. If you think someone is posting drivel then engage with them and show them where their logic might have faltered in getting to that point. Sometimes it goes to fundamental differences in approach (in my case I seldom find "but my religious book says" a good reason to do anything, yet others would vehemently disagree so then we are left with having to undo possibly decades of brainwashing and cult mentality, something I and nobody I have ever read of has ever found an easy method for, before we can discuss the actual matter which is somewhat tedious, occasionally you might be able to go a bit abstract -- "these are the rules of the lawmaking process, go from here" but it seldom creates a great resolution where religious dogma is a driving force)
