You do raise some valid points, but the problem here is that if we go that route, we might as well rename this community from “Not The Onion” to “Politics But Focused Mostly On Hypocrisy”.
I don’t think most of the people in this community want this to be a politically-focused community to the exclusion of everything else. We don’t want every article on the front page to be yet another “Trump did/said something hypocritical again.” That’s not Onion-y.
