My guess is that he's pointing out the metaphorical nature of 
political discussion in art. Pynchon uses metaphor to stand for 
politics; we use politics to stand for art; why not simply obliterate 
the artificial categories and admit that discussing ideas knows no 
bounds? (Rhetorical, general question with no specific recipient)

What annoys most people is rigidly, dogmatic, partisan politics. On 
any truly intelligent list, any perspective would be welcome (that's 
not true here...).
