Personally I’d prefer to see politics videos allowed. Back in the early days of reddit, r/videos was full of politics videos with lots of engagement. Finally they sent all that to the r/politicalvideo ghetto to die. I always thought that was too bad.
Videos is such a broad category so I definitely understand the sentiment that political videos should be allowed as long as they’re not peddling blatantly false agendas. Personally however, I find politics to be increasingly draining on the psyche and sometimes I just want a community where I can turn my brain off and enjoy some silly and quick laughs or some interesting factoids or mini docs, etc.
I guess it all depends on whether the community here wants c/videos to be lighthearted or a broader category.
