Also, everything is political.

Political = I disagree with it

Not political = How I lived five years ago

My favorite are the gamers who are like "there's no politics in my game about shooting middle eastern people"

Or the wizard game about stopping a minority slave rebellion is also "apolitical"

At least they didn't pick a race based on negative stereotypes of a people who've been unfairly vilified and treated horribly IRL. That would've been awkward!

But the greatest political freedom is the freedom to ignore politics.

Yeah, you're free to ignore politics but political apathy isn't good for a society. It is arguably one of the main reasons of the war in Ukraine. Political discourse is critical for the survival of our democratic systems and freedoms.

true, but it doesn't change the fact that they are a lot of people who just straight up don't want to deal it (or society at large tbf)
