Should authors refrain from inserting their /pol/itical beliefs in their writing if it gets in the way of a good story?
Tl;dr should we keep /pol/ out of /lit/?
Political beliefs ARE the story. If they can't integrate and merge their beliefs with the story they're bad writers.

But to answer your question: no.
If the story calls for politics go ahead.
I wouldn't politicize things just for the sake of it though.
Don't mention the color of the curtains if it doesn't matter.
if your story is about a lone wolf aryan superman who uncovers the global jewish plot, no

It's a dilemma because if you seek to write a story that is intentionally apolitical, then you are by proxy being political. I think that it is important that story correlates with your belief system, otherwise it comes across as too detached or at worst nihilistic. The question is how overt or subtle you are.
It's kind of impossible to do that. Even Nabokov, who spoke out against that sort of thing wrote a couple of political books and had his views seep into others.

Anything should be kept away
