When can we stop inserting politics into every little thing?
When I see comments like this, it makes 2 things plainly obvious:
- The commentor is naive and doesn't understand that fundamentally 'politics' is the power dynamic in every relationship, be that between people, groups or with structures or things such as food.
It is in everything and connects everything. It defines your relationship and how you interact with the world and it's relationship to, and interaction with you.
- The commentor has enough privilege that they don't have to worry about politics/power structures on a daily basis.
Some people can't see the wood for the trees
