The only sub I would regularly discuss politics in was a sub that had a "Be civil" rule.

You could argue and say shit about politicians, but name-calling directed at another user would get the comment deleted.

Of course, even that wouldn't be enough for some people even here...I remember someone who was creating multiple posts about how bad Lemmy is because someone said they were "butthurt" about downvotes, lol
