I feel like MLs have a tendency to do this.

Espeically when it comes to the topic of "liberals" and "AOC."

    People occasionally need to wind down with a movie or a book or whatever

    I don't. I used to wind down before bed with Lichess against the computer.

    Hobbies vary in how much community participation is necessary. Many competitive hobbies require you to keep up with the meta to have a chance. If you want to travel or garden you can just do that and not engage with the community. If you want to watch a TV show you'll get the most enjoyment out of it by discussing it with other people, irl or online. I think this is some element of how "pop culture" a hobby is. Probably need a definition to get any further.
