The unwillingness to understand this is arguably a huge part of the problem, particularly in democratic systems. Every breath you take from the moment you are born until the moment you die is both a function of, and contributes towards a political zeitgeist which spans centuries in both directions. At best, an individual’s attempt at “avoiding” politics merely cedes a portion of their own agency to others, which again, a political act.

Just to be clear, are you calling for all communities to become politics communities, so that there are no spaces about anything else?

Lovely rhetoric there, but I regularly read newspapers, so I am “avoiding” nothing. It is just nice to have spaces which are about something other than politics.

I listen to music with no lyrics, and I make some of my own. What’s the politics in that? I build Lego with my kid. I eat a sandwich for lunch.
