If society was really above those things a person like Trump would have at best only a single or 5% of the populace going to bat for him.

STEROLIZER 02/02/24 6:24:04 AM #29:	UnfairRepresent posted... That's still caring about politics dude, it's just not knowing what label to use. I mean, thats your interpretation. Everyone cares about stuff. It's human nature. You can't be alive and not have opinions about the world around you. At what point does that mean one gets involved in politics tho? It just seems like a cop out answer. "If you are were born, then you care about politics" -- like that's quite obviously isn't what this poll is meant to represent. Its meant to represent those that actually keep up with politics in the way that our society tends to accept the terminology -- do you vote, do you understand the changing policy, do you know the name of the vice president, can you define what "capitalism" is. Shit like that, as opposed to someone who just walks outside everyday and lives their life without any actual idea of what the hell is going on with the government, or any desire to find out. By your interpretation I could have simply made a polls that said "are you currently alive or dead" -- which would be disingenuous, but the analogy would ring true, because even if someone voted "no" that would prove they were actually alive. Thus, I'm making a poll without true poll options, which isn't really a poll at all. So if by virtue of being a living person you automatically care about politics, then it means one can not actually create a poll asking if people care about politics, yet I did just that, and people answered accordingly...which means either they're all wrong, or perhaps...~~INCEPTION & TIME TRAVEL PARADOX!~~ Guide posted... I challenge you to come up with a definition of political that can actually fit with that statement. I believe what you're talking about is a vague feeling more than a properly considered observation. Do you care to understand political terminology, and then learn how those labels affects the way various governments operate; then upon learning these things (or refusing to do so) do you wish to be involved in the process by which citizens can influence the way these various governments operate? Or do you just want to you know, be alive without any further knowledge on how your persona opinions, views on life, or difect and indirect actions actual correlate and influence said government process? Something like that. You get the gist. <cite>STEROLIZER posted [p:978610379] in Do you car...

"If you are were born, then you care about politics" -- like that's quite obviously isn't what this poll is meant to represent. Its meant to represent those that actually keep up with politics in the way that our society tends to accept the terminology -- do you vote, do you understand the changing policy, do you know the name of the vice president, can you define what "capitalism" is. Shit like that, as opposed to someone who just walks outside everyday and lives their life without any actual idea of what the hell is going on with the government, or any desire to find out.By your interpretation I could have simply made a polls that said "are you currently alive or dead" -- which would be disingenuous, but the analogy would ring true, because even if someone voted "no" that would prove they were actually alive. Thus, I'm making a poll without true poll options, which isn't really a poll at all. So if by virtue of being a living person you automatically care about politics, then it means one can not actually create a poll asking if people care about politics, yet I did just that, and people answered accordingly...which means either they're all wrong, or perhaps...INCEPTION & TIME TRAVEL PARADOX!Guide posted... </cite><quote>I challenge you to come up with a definition of political that can actually fit with that statement. I believe what you're talking about is a vague feeling more than a properly considered observation.</quote>Do you care to understand political terminology, and then learn how those labels affects the way various governments operate; then upon learning these things (or refusing to do so) do you wish to be involved in the process by which citizens can influence the way these various governments operate?Or do you just want to you know, be alive without any further knowledge on how your persona opinions, views on life, or difect and indirect actions actual correlate and influence said government process?Something like that.

dioxxys 02/02/24 6:44:35 AM #34:	It's really annoying when people try to make everything about politics and their entire identity centers around it. It seems a lot of them are negative and Debbie Downers. Sports fans are annoying too but at least they're boisterous and outgoing. Not for me though.

I can't afford healthcare, a house, or to have kids or go on vacation even though I'm working 24/7. In my downtime, I don't have time to waste my free hours that I could be using to relax and enjoy my hobbies reading up on how so and so politician is the biggest asshole or how they may or may not pass x law.
