Unfortunately for everyone who thinks like this, everything is political. Media, food, art and design, technology - it’s all done by people who are citizens (polites) of some state or another (polity) and everything they have access to is driven more by politics than nearly any other factor at this point. Even the desire to be free from politics is a political position.

Here’s an example: I posted on /c/unpopularopinion that it can’t be right that a well-known actor like James Van Der Beek is becoming impoverished because he can’t afford the cost of his cancer treatment. I posted there because I know from experience that this would not be allowed in other communities because it is supposedly a political post - even at unpopularopinion, the post was removed by the moderators.
Therefore, I believe that this arbitrary rule is completely absurd.
