I'm part of #1. I avoid commenting on/upvoting political stories though. They're definitely the easiest to talk about. I stick to issues where I have some expertise.
I'm a bit torn by these NSA revelations because most other sites seem to be ignoring them. But I feel they've become too prominent.
Dito. I rarely comment or upvote as I feel I'd contribute to the change in quality I'm seeing myself even though I have only been here for 2 years.
