Politics isn't something to be studied "objectively", where views are right or wrong on their own merits (or worse, some pseudo-"empirical" measure). There is no "null theory" for politics; all political engagement starts from some political theory or method of analysis.
So this so-called "mood affiliation" isn't a fallacy at all, it's the identification of a speaker's political theory. Pretending that you don't have such a theory (or that yours is "objective" or "neutral") won't make it so!
