I'm immediately suspicious of people that don't want to discuss politics in today's world. You literally have to be a carefree ostrich.
I guess not wanting to discuss it is okay considering that's exhausting, but asking others not to is the dick move
Not really. I want to kick back and relax, why would i start discussing politics in my free time? I live in a state that is deeply entrenched in one side, so my opinion does not really matter
Sounds like you're asking yourself a philosophical question. Some people actually care about things.
Arguing politics online has never solved anything. I have better uses of my energy than to argue politics with a bunch of faceless randoms that won't accept anything less than total conformity.
Politics in a political or news sub is fine. Politics in, say, a technology sub or a gaming one is just annoying.
I think they prefer to be called "Austrians"
Tell me how it's "suspicious" to not want to read a post about Starfield, and have the comments be filled about politics because the game allows you to pick between he/him, she/her, and they/them?
It's a game. Shut the fuck up about politics.
Umm how is that politics? I think you're confused.
America has turned pronouns political. I think you're confused.
Ahh ok any social issue that makes people uncomfortable is political.
I don't think you understand what pronouns are.
