Everything is political. You can't win an argument with a bigot by saying your identity is political, because it's not true. We have to erase the stigma against politics. And you're not helping with that.

You can still campaign. Volunteer. Have discussions. Join a union. Participate in direct action. Attend a rally. Go on strike.
Yeah, that's correct, except you're not talking about politics. You're talking about controversy. It's dangerous for you to talk about controversy, not politics. Everything is political, and that means you talk about politics every day. Everyone you know is completely comfortable with politics, it's just controversy they don't like.
Rich people want you to use the newspeak of calling it politics so you'll be more malleable.

I have literally never seen an apolitical comment from you on this website. And you're always on the fedidrama community. Show me one apolitical comment you've made, and I'll believe you have a personality other than politics.
You're valid and @[email protected] is being incredibly dismissive towards your experiences. You have a right to be angry when you see privileged takes like that. You're owed an apology.
This is the same lie they told about bee society in Bee Movie
It conflates the broadest dictionary definition of “politics” with the narrow, collaquial one
Actually, it completely erases the narrow, colloquial one. I think the colloquial definition of politics is completely unacceptable to use, and I refuse to legitimise it. Words have meanings and I'm going to treat people like they used the correct ones. If they have a problem with that, they can say what they mean instead of what they don't.
Treating politics like something you can escape is a microaggression against BIPOC people whose identities are politicised every day, and is therefore racist. I'm not going to legitimise racism. If people want to act like politics is avoidable, they can go do it at the klan rally.
I like The Marvels and I don't see any of those issues you're talking about. Examples?
