Toyota Prius: Any Prius discussion here, or "all politics, all the time"?

Well?

Personally, I don't like long back-and-forth threads in which there is lots
of smoke and little light. That applies even to tangential topics like
synthetic vs. 'dino' oil, but I shrug and accept that oil choice does apply
to actual Prius ownership issues.

For political topics and quasi-political topics (controversial issues not
important to Prius ownership) I'd rather not be annoyed by them, whether or
not I agree with the original premise. I accept there are people here with
political views very different from mine, but I also know most of them are
too refined to go on about it in this forum. I've made the mistake of
joining those discussions in the past and I'm sorry I did. I'm working on
that.
