The point of cool zone was to be a place to talk about the hard times we've all been going through without feeling guilty about bringing down the mood in general.
Naturally, a lot of these hard times are predicated on beliefs and views which are political in nature.
It is not, however, a place for political discussion. Political discussions often happen there, yes, but it is not for those discussions any more than general was. The people in there are seeking a place to talk about the fucked up corona world we live in, not political debate, devil's advocacy, etc.
When people are venting or experiencing grief, it is generally considered rude to try to bring skepticism or debate into their feelings. Determining whether or not a discussion is wanted or welcome is part of "reading the room", and knowing how to enter those situations tactfully is a skill that requires practice
