For posts like that they used to tell you to not insult the site staff, despite said staff not being worthy of respect or politeness.

Usually it means they dont want to get caught up in the nonsense of it all. If you pick a side it means that youre one of them! to the other side. Then the politicians try to live a fake lifestyle until their dirty deeds come out in the tabloids.

But it if you dont vote then you get accused on enabling the other side by each side.

Politics is lose/lose

Politics discussions almost always lead to shit flinging and toxicity. This is why I don't discuss it with friends and coworkers. This is also why i try to stay away from it online too.

Hmmm..maybe research the politician and their background and policies? Why would I need some random stranger's opinion to help me decide who to vote for?

It tells me that they're normal people who don't see everything as black and white.
It tells me that they don't base their identity around it.
It tells me that they're worth putting effort in and spending time with, unlike people who are into politics, who think the differences between you and them are insurmountable because you don't think like them, and that it, in their arrogance, makes you a person that's not worthy of their attention.

I'm a political science student and even I don't wanna talk about politics 9 times out of 10. Partially because I spend so much time talking/reading/thinking about politics already, and partially because it's basically pointless. Most people have their minds made up already, thus every conversation turns into either an argument or a circle jerk.

There's a difference between someone not being into politics and not wanting to talk about them, though. I can't stand talking about it or hearing people talk about it IRL, but that doesn't mean I don't keep up with it.

Isn't that what this topic is about? In my head there's a fully fleshed out scenario with a libertarian at a bus stop...it doesn't end well :_(

That's a good point. I guess I didn't really touch on it in my original post, but "I'm not into politics" or "I don't care about politics" are some excuses I've used in certain situations. I really understand now more than ever why people say to avoid religion and politics.

For fuck's sake this isn't about people who just *say they aren't into politics. It's about those who aren't into politics.
