1. It's allowed unlike many other forums.
2. We came here to make nations so obviously we have an interest in politics.

Yes? No?

The entire site is based on nation-building. It should be obvious, eh?

...because we're all nerds.

If you're reading this, you're not normal. Accept it, move on.

Isn't this a political forum? We take care of nations in this game so we must have at least a passing interest in politics. That and we are all opinionated and our friends and family want us to shut the hell up so we come here to bother other people. :)

Speaking as a USian here, unlike most overtly political fora, the mods here don't ban you for taking a particular viewpoint. Try being an unabashed liberal on RedState or the Free Republic for instance. Might be the same for conservatives at Democratic Underground--never been a member there. Add to that the flavor of an international community, and there's lots of room for wide discussion on a range of topics.
