Why does everything have to be political?

0 Upvotes

Went to r/music and had to scroll 3 pages before I saw a post that wasn't about trump or maga or ICE. r/pics is basically useless for the same reason and on and on. I was reading some posts about the winter storm on the east coast and someone mentioned how much ice they were going to get and half the comments were about the OTHER ICE with the highest rated comment being a tirade about the pedo fascist cheese man blah blah...on a post...about the weather...ffs.

I get people are mad and the world is justifiably angry but does nobody ever want to live outside that even for a second? It's like there is a sentiment that if you stop talking about it for 2 seconds and don't make it part of everything you say then you become part of the problem because you are "ignoring the issues".

Every. Single. Thing is people tripping over people who were tripping over themselves to find SOME way to make the topic an outlet for political discussion regardless of how wildly unrelated it originally was.

EDIT:

Ok so from the response I have gotten, unless you are political 100% of the time with every fiber of your being you are apolitical. Gotcha.

Good fucking lord. I mentioned having the capacity for SOME things SOMETIMES to not be about politics and it's like im a holocaust denier. I give up. You'll have to continue on without me. ✌️

The DNC won't disavow AIPAC, won't implement any internal rules to disallow super PACs, and still demands your vote. So why do you vote for them?

15 Upvotes

They will literally leverage your dissatisfaction of Trump and the GOP against you by demanding vote blue no matter who, while at the same time doing NOTHING substantial to help YOU. Why continue down this path?

I'm not complaining, mind you, but those shorts look like they're just a constant wedgie. It don't look comfortable at all.

Political Question Biden was the best President of our generation. He did the CHIPS act, cancelled student loans, and invested 1.2 trillion in infrastructure. So why isn't he getting the credit he deserves?

Why do people criticize him if he was so good for the country and our economy?

Political Question Do you guys think Kamala would’ve been a good president?

87 Upvotes

A lot of people say that Kamala was a bad candidate but at same time she has a lot of good policies number one she had an incentive to give newly homeowners $25,000 down payment to help them afford their first house, she wanted to increase the tax deduction for small businesses, she supported federal bans on corporate price gouging for food she she also wanted to lower the cost of medication such as insulin wanted to give us a stronger border and changed the US immigration system because obviously it sucks.

What if (hear me out), Americans didn’t pay taxes until they got universal healthcare?

0 Upvotes

Seriously though, America is the only developed country without universal healthcare (so I’ve heard). Can Americans just not pay taxes as a protest to make change in the government? Precisely universal healthcare.

Will someone kindly explain to me how calling someone male (or) female is dehumanizing?

0 Upvotes

I've recently come across this with Gen z people and I don't know how to make sense of it.

The argument when I've asked about is that people are saying it's dehumanizing because it's like an animal terminology (as if that makes any sense) or it's like calling a black person black (yeah right...)

My counter argument to it has been...well humans are technically animals, we're just the 1st ones to figure out how fire worked first.

If someone could explain it better that would be greatly appreciated.

Political Question People who didn’t vote Kamala - can you admit you messed up?

0 Upvotes

Over the last year and a half there have been many excuses why people didn’t vote Kamala. Whether it be her laugh, she’s a woman, Gaza bullshit, can you finally admit you messed up in not voting Kamala?

I’d have thought these types learned their lesson after they didn’t vote Hillary and gave us a corrupt Supreme Court thru trump, but the same types messed up again.

Can you admit you were wrong?

Edit: Looks like a lot of the selfish self righteous are in these comments that still can’t admit they messed up and are blaming anything except their own actions.

Propaganda bots going hard also - I wonder why they push not voting? 🥴

Political Question Why weren't people as mad at Obama for his immigration stance?

0 Upvotes

He deported more immigrants than Trump but nobody said anything, why the shift in attitude when someone else does it? Trump was called a Nazi during his election campaign for making the same points as Obama.

Why is it ok for businesses to not do the “right thing” (pay livable wages) but not ok for a person to not do the “right thing” (steal from businesses)?

1 Upvotes

Is it that people conflate “legal” with “moral“ and “illegal“ with “immoral“?

Obviously, a person has to live within their means, but there are plenty of jobs where working 40 hours a week does not provide enough to live by any means. Why does society say this is okay?
