I share this observation.

I'm not really sure in how far you consider the first statement relevant
to the question. If your focus is on political controverses I have a
clear statement: Make sure off-topic messages will be reduced to a
bare minimum on Debian channels (maximum is one message to invite people
to a non-Debian channel and mark this invitation [OT]).
If the discussion about technical topics that are relevant for Debian
might become controversal this is no problem as long as participants of
the discussion are following our Code of Conduct[1]. This is something
we once agreed upon and I consider it very important.

Just answering after the campaign period started.
Kind regards
