That’s a wild assumption to have based on nothing. The reasons why someone spends so much time or very little time thinking about politics could be radically different. There are a lot of people who make politics their lives but are willfully ignorant, selfish assholes. This site is a prime example of that. At the same time there are very kind, well meaning people who don’t think about politics. This isn’t something that’s black and white.

politics may not be everything, but everyone is affected by them, whether or not you like it or acknowledge it.

Those very kind / well meaning people would take more of interest in their civic duties if they were truly well meaning.

Calling people an ignorant, selfish asshole is really going to help see the light and day of why politics are important and/or make them see why your opinions are good.

If they’re too stupid to see it already then they can die with the rest of the idiots, we don’t care about convincing them anymore
