Well, if you're looking for a music technology oriented list specifically for 
off-topic stuff (including politics to a certain degree, although not too 
much) Ampfea.org has "The Music Bar":

http://www.ampfea.org/mailman/listinfo/music-bar

It's quite high traffic, almost anything goes - it's "a bar", and like any 
real bar, it can get a bit rowdy at times!  It's certainly the most unique 
list I've ever been on, and I'd feel slightly lost without it.

There's some really great people over there, many of whom I've met and jammed 
with (some individually, some at small international gatherings of ten or so 
people) and now consider to be good personal friends.

I'm not saying "take the flamewar over there" because it wouldn't be 
appreciated, but thought I'd drop a shameless plug for what has been an 
infinitely valuable list to be on, and a place that would accommodate this 
kind of discussion from time to time.

It's also a nice little community for sharing your music with and getting lots 
of feedback to improve your work - there's some very knowledgable people on 
that list, and newcomers are always welcomed.

It doesn't suit everyone, but I like it there.
