I look at it as a matter of both privilege and apathy. I get upset (not visibly, of course) when people say they don't "like" politics, or blow it off entirely. Politics is not some separate entity, we are living in a society! An inherently political game!
Furthermore, there is no "politics" as just a concept. What part of politics? Literally everything is politics. Climate change and environmental care? Food and agriculture? Economics? Culture, beauty, art? How can someone blow off literally everything? To me its an attempt to shut down conversation and demonstrates they don't care or have no idea about the atrocities that have occurred/are going to due to the West's collapse and climate change. Am I out of touch? Being non-undedstanding?
Let me know, thanks
Yeah, being 'apolitical' is still a political ideology. And it's a bad one because of its inherent apathy. It's responding to the corruption and injustice at the highest levels of government by ignoring it. And when they're an eligible voter in a democracy, being 'apolitical' is consent and support for the actions of the incumbents.
But you also have to distinguish that from people who don't have the spoons to talk about politics at any given time. Making people too emotionally and/or physically tired to address the systemic issues is a core part of the system. That isn't on the individual.
