Politics, current events, your waifu, your favorite flavor of ice cream (off the top of my head).
All of these discussions should be handled the same if a problem occurs, politics isn't exclusive to causing problems; people can and will argue about anything.
If it's small talk in spectator, like hey what do you guys think about x (being anything) it does not matter. If someone complains it should be taken to private messaging out of common decency.
If it's causing micspam, people yelling over each other, taking away from gameplay or any other problems it should be handled within the rules as micspam/respect
Banning certain things because of one incident will not stop people from micspamming/ being disrespectful of others in the future. People can be equally as obnoxious over any topic.
Banning politics discussion is not the answer; banning the people breaking the rules while discussing politics is.
